On the channel List: on my converter box for 7.1, 7.2 7.3:
all I see is "DTV PROGRAM"
What is up with that?
Does anyone else have the same problem?

Don't feel bad. I'm having the same problem with 7.1 using a newly installed DTV off-air (i.e. over the air antenna) tunner. 7.1 in HD initially worked fine until a week or so ago (around the accademy awards). I can get 7.2,7.3 and other off-air stations such as 28.1. The good news for me is that I can get 7.0 in HD using the DTV Satellite channel feed (i.e equivalent to 7.1 HD picture.) I don't know what happened to the over the air signal but I speculate that the cable negotiations going on may have something to do with it (i.e the 7.1 signal was ententionally turned off or weakened). Bottom-line: the problem is not on your end. Hope this helps. Dennis

I too, cannot receive a signal from channel 7. I get every other station but that one. So much for their ratings because there's no way I am ever paying to watch television.

There are a few things you can do. 1) where are you watching from? 2) is your antenna pointed at Rib Mountain, or if you live in the Northwoods, Sayner? 3) have you re-scanned lately? 4) if you have problems, please call our engineering department during normal business hours- 715-845-4211.
Thanks, Chad

Thank you Channel 7. A good job on the channel list, and the resetting of the clock!

Tv listings can be found at TV GUIDE ( tvguide.com ) As for the signal strength, I do not understand! I get the impression Channel 7 does not want to address this. I have E-Mailed them, without a response. But when the signal can be received, they have spots that tell us what a wonderful job they are doing. I think the public does not want a TV station with good taste; we want one that tastes good. (A Starkist Tuna reference)

Where can you find the TV Schedule for these channels? I can't find the .1 .2 .3 on any tv listings on here to see what's on tv... ALSO, I could get 36.1 now it won't come on, what's up???

I have the same problem with channel 7.1, 7.2, 7.3 with giving only " DTV Program". I have a hard time pulling in Channel 7.1 when the weather is windy and cloudy. All my other channels are fine, does anyone else have a problem with channel 7.1 and the reception?

I only get channels like 4, 5, 8, & 13! What's up with that? I do not want to keep getting these same channels! They are lame!

Our family always watches channel 7. I grew up watching channel 7. On Thursday July 2, that was the last day we were able to recieve your signal. We have tried over and over again, and still can not pick up your signal. Did you power down for some reason? This just drives me crazy!!!! As of noon today (7/6/09) I still can not pick up any sign of your channel. We get all of the other stations including 9. Nothing has changed with our antenna, it is still the same, and still working. So PLEASE if you did power down, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE POWER BACK UP. This is making me an obsessed nervous wreck.
