Directv Channel Issue
I have a SWM-3 on a tripod since I can't use my new roof setup (woods). I have 90's on the 101 and 103. CNNHD comes in a hacked up but HGTVHD is perfect. What am I missing? Thanks.

- Wow. that explains a lot. Thanks. Think I will go set the skew right now.
- The HD channels on DirecTV are on both 99 and 103. By not setting the skew you are obviously not getting a bunch of those. With a SWM-3 the skew is not that sensitive a measurement. Just set it to whatever value you get from the website. You probably won't even have to peak it.

No, that's not locals (afaik).
Isn't 99 locals? I left it at zero skew.
Adjust the 101, set skew.. see if that helps.2oldman wrote:

I've had very good luck just shooting the 101 (with 0 skew) to 95 or so using the 'Signal Meters' screen. Then adjust the skew.
If you are in trees perhaps that's causing some signals to be distorted. You shouldn't have to, but have you checked 99?- I've had very good luck just shooting the 101 (with 0 skew) to 95 or so using the 'Signal Meters' screen. Then adjust the skew.
