Did anyone else have problems with the Ch. 58 HD signal last night during Hack and Homicide? Hack started out with a strong signal (low 70's) and by 9:20 pm the signal was 28 with no picture. I had the same problem during CSI on Thursday. Now this morning the signal is back in the 70's.

Same problem here on the south side of Racine. And, this has been happening all too frequently the past three weeks. Fortunately, Discovery HD Theater has come out with some stunning new programming so I'll watch that instead of CBS.

Thanks, I really didn't want to get on the roof to adjust my antenna. Maybe Jim Hall, if monitoring this site, can respond. Jim?

This topic probably belongs in the technical issues forum. I think the problem is related to tropospheric ducting.

I have noticed that I have the most trouble with the CBS-HD signal on nights when I can get many Chicago stations. Unfortunately, I can't get WBBM-DT so I am left without CBS on those nights.

I mentioned in another thread that I was getting digital stations from Chicago and South Bend Indiana with higher signal stengths than 58...
