I've not heard yet from our Shaw rep in Alberta to see what the issue might be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyPanda Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 Since this appears not be an isolated incident, has everyone done a REFRESH of their receivers? It could be an upgrade or software change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mexbound Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sm1mex Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 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.

mexbound Posted February 28, 2021 Report Share Posted February 28, 2021 As I said earlier in this thread, it is not sun outages. Sun outages occur in the afternoon around 2 - 3 pm (when the sun is out). These channels are gone. All day, all night. Gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cedros Posted February 28, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2021 Has anyone heard if people in the PV and Melaque areas have have the same problem? I've asked people there but have not heard back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
