Both the national CBC news Channel and the national CTV news network aren't working tonight. This is unusual. Anyne else have the same problem?

Every night, from 8:01 pm till 11 pm, we are losing the US CBS affiliates. It says the system has lost the signal, but it is only in my 2 CBS feeds. I've not heard yet from our Shaw rep in Alberta to see what the issue might be.

Yes, I'm losing PBS Detroit during the newscast every evening.

Since this appears not be an isolated incident, has everyone done a REFRESH of their receivers? It could be an upgrade or software change.

It probably is time for a refresh but I have used Shaw for 12 years am I am usually aware of any small changes and this is s big one.

I just did a refresh but it can take 15 minutes to kick in so I will see if it makes a difference soon.

Refresh did not make any difference.

This is definitely not a sun outage. It is getting close to that time of year where we lose signal around 2-3 pm in the afternoon. But these channels are out all day long. I also lost Discovery 445 and 450, as well as other channels. Maybe Shaw moved these channels to a Satellite we can't receive signals from here in Mexico?

I have not heard anything official but I suspect that is the case.

We stopped Shaw. They are putting a lot of programs on a third satellite which does not beam to Mexico. We switched to Dish. Much better more channels but more $$ depending on the package you choose. Ajijic Electronics put it in. Also we don’t lose a signal every time a cloud goes over.
