[mythtv-users] Prebuffering pause

[Yan Seiner]

I got one of those new gen HD HomeRuns.  Serial 1016*.  I have 2 
antennas, directional, at 90 deg to each other.  Each antenna is run 
directly to one tuner.

I'm having problems with one station.  It comes in at iether 93 or 96%, 
depending on the antenna.  That one station is getting horrible 
reception.  The stations with 58% signal strength are doing great.  The 
station I'm having trouble with came in perfectly with the PCHDTV-3000 
card.  Here's a log file of tuning that station.  Why would it affect 
just one station, and one with the strongest signal at that?  No 
amplifiers at all; just a straight shot from a rooftop antenna to the HDHR.
