DirecTV This Evening
 

Around 7 pm we lost CBS, NBC, ABC and FOX out of Orlando stations while watching the ABC Nightly News and they are still out. We get other channels like TWC CNN HGTV. Anyone know what is up with this?

Probably weather related between you and whatever satellite those stations were using.

jusy got off phone with dir tv effects all hd local programs....if you press menu button, settings, settings, display, preferences, then go down 1 and change guide to show all channels then your tv guide will show non hd programing and it will mwotk

I am out too. All local channels r gone. Just high end channels like USA, TNT,TWC and such r working. Got to be a system problem. No clouds or storms here in TV. Clear beautiful skys.

Switched to SD channels and now have programing back. There is a notice now when you hit an HD channel like WESH 2 from Directv saying there is difficulty with the HD feeds and to switch to the SD channels. Thanks for all the feedback. We thought we were the only ones with the problem.
