Anyone having a problem with showtime hd east (C3 118)?
All of a sudden, screen just says "please wait a moment ... We are
processing your request".
My subscription is good, no probs with showtime hd west or any other hd
channels, no probs with other digital or analog channels on C3.

thanks for any thoughts....

More or less SOS. What about the other channels above 118? Usually the
ones below 118 are fine, and the ones at or above 118 are iffy.
Sometimes they are better than iffy, but not by much.

A bigger dish would likely help...

That message usually means that you do not have a digital lock.
Try manually (not auto) peaking the dish position and polarity.

you got it... thanks... i manually messed with skew and got it back... i had
tried that before, and tried auto peaking, i guess i just wasnt patient
enough when i did it manually... it takes a few seconds for the "quality"
reading to respond to skew changes.
thanks again
