54 off air?
54-1+ has disappeared off my TV again. Rescanned and it didn't show up. Light search around the internet came up with nothing. Is it just my tv? Or is the broadcast down? Can anyone confirm yea or nay?

I suspect the TV itself. This is the third time 54 has gotten "lost" but it's only the first time that manually selecting one of the channels failed to get a signal and kept going back to 54-1. Rescanned unsuccessfully three times before posting. After y'all confirmed it was working, I reconnected the cheap indoor antenna to the other TV and 54 came in perfectly. After that, I headed back to the first TV, scanned again and there they were.

Just checked and it’s working for me.

Well if are with mediacom it’s been out for over a year due to Tegna dispute with them . Lots of cities across the country are being denied service by Tegna owned stations as is WZDX. Seems this would be unlawful

Nah, I get it directly over-the-air.

To the people who are downvoting OP, why? I don't see anything wrong with this post... 🤷♂️

Probably for no more reason than that we're on Reddit. Or it's a boring post.

54 goes in and out for me. Either their main tower changes power output, or, I dunno, do they use repeaters in TV broadcast for "holes"? Maybe one of those is out?

Never considered a repeater. It does cut out periodically in bad weather but is generally stable. I rescanned one more time after noticing the TV with the cheap, indoor antenna was working fine and "suddenly" it found 54 again.

Mine disappeared today as well. Will try your tips.
