I used to get channnel 7-1, 7-2, 9-1, 9-2, 9-3, 9-4 and 9-5 in San Francisco
bay area. Since yesterday, they have disappeared with no signal strength.

Anybody else facing the problem?

Excerpt from a post on http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HDTV-in-SFbay/

Rich Tom...the Chief Engineer at KGO wrote:

KGO-DT is currently off the air along with KQED and KMTP. We have an
antenna problem at Sutro Tower. The problem is high VSWR alarm on the
shared antenna system. Looks like we will be down for several days
until we can get it repaired.

There's a mechanical problem on the part of Sutro Tower that KGO and
KQED share. They're working on it.

YEAH I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM, I JUST PICKED UP A SIGNAL AMPLIFIER AND GUESS WHAT I GET ALL THOSE CHANNELS AGAIN. YEAH I HEARD THEY WERE REPLACING THE ANTENNA ON SUTRO TOWER WHICH IS WHY THEY HAVE A WEAKER SIGNAL.
