Default 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.

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.
