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?

    I have a lot of trouble with my box it doesnt seem to want to get away from the crakkling. I was wondering if anyone else had that problem and if so how did you fix it or do I just have to live with it?

    All Digital converters are not alike. I went through a few and finally found one made by Dish Network. It works great, and has a tv guide that downloads free each day. It was 40 bucks on line. I used a coupon and got it free. I can set timers and I can get channel 7.1 and 7.2. &.3 is discontinued.

    Digital is great if you can recieve the signal. Now I have to pay for satellite cause my house sits in a low spot that the digital signal can't reach. Worked fine with just rabbit ears before nmodern technology screwed it up. I know this is true for manny acrossed the U.S. And yes I tried an outdoor digital antenna on my roof. Thank goodness Radio Shack has a 30 day money back. I used it for my first month of dish. Oh did I mention they only give you 7, 9, and 55...not the digital extras. Thanks to whoever came up with the great digital age. You have given us even more to spend our money on.

    what channel is abc family in the converter box

    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

    im having problem getting ch7 on this converter box

    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!
