It could just be my system. I still have a signal strength of 78+ for WTVM but my reciever shows "Searching for signal". It started this last night and is still like that this morning.
Anyone else having problems with WTVM today?

I placed a phone call to them this afternoon and they connected me with the engineer's office. His voice mail message said he was on vacation thru August 12. I just hung up.

I have a good signal as well, but like you there is no picture.

I don't have it either, but I have a contact there so I'll see if I can find out anything. It may be in the morning, though.

Are you receiving WTVM in HD from Mediacom or off-air? If Mediacom, I believe they get their feed directly from the station as opposed to others which receive it off-air.
WTVM engineers are aware of the problem and have been working on it. The Motorola receiver that they use to monitor their own off-air signal is showing up fine, but i explained the problem some of us are having. Hopefully they can get it straightened out tomorrow.

I had problems as well. I did not check the signal meter though, but I cannot get wtvm DT but I can get the analog. As of 7:30am this morning, wtvm was out and all the other channels were fine.
I had been having signal issues with wtvm for the past couple weeks anyway and just figured their signal went out.

Just to clarify, I was getting WTVM last night with OTA. That same day, I had mediacom HD hooked up. That's when I found out that they only carry one local HD staion, WTVM. At that time it was not working with the new box. I even called their tech support and it never came in. I then decided to not use Mediacom, disconnected the box and hooked up my old VOOM box which still works for OTA. All four stations were working for me last night.

Hey Bill- I don't blame you for ditching cable, I'm leaving Knology tomorrow. I'll stick with OTA for now, but soon going back to Dish for national HD content. All stations are back for me now on OTA, with great signals. Also, I was probably mistaken on which company gets their signal directly from the station- it's been awhile since I talked to anyone about that.
