Power bumps in Battle Mountain have caused one of our translators to be scrambled.  Crescent Valley is effected.  We are working to get things back to normal and have made some changes in the mean time to keep as many channels on the air as possible.  We will have things back to full capacity as soon as possible.

Mount Wheeler Power is still working on their problems.  Maintenance has come up with a solution, that will allow the generator to start when the power is having this type of problem,  but has to order parts and won't be able to fix it until next week.  They will be heading up to see if the battery backup has stopped because the power to it lost a leg. If it can be rest they will reset it but it will continue to happen until either their solution gets installed or until Mount Wheeler Power fixes the problem that is causing our problem.
11/10/2024 update
Maintenance has detected problems with the power supply to the mountain.  They are informing Mount Wheeler Power and are hoping what they have done will keep everything up and running until Mount Wheeler can fix their problem.

If you see the sign "Test Signal On"  or some version of that, it means the source of the transmission is having problems and not our equipment.  This has happened in the last 2 days and we have no way to fix it.  Apparently the Reno broadcasters are have problems with the fiber feed.  They will have it fixed asap.  Thank you for your calls and concerns.

Express Internet will be replacing cables on their Tank Hill equipment tomorrow if they didn't get to it today.
This should help the reception greatly.

We are still working with the internet provider and AT&T.

Viewers, due to the Super Bowl our AT&T fiber carrier is overloaded causing poor reception for the Eureka area.  Unfortunately there is nothing that can be done to remedy this but wait until the game ends and the usage diminishes.  We apologize for the inconvenience.

Due to ice on Prospect Peak, one of the Utah stations had to be dropped to make the other channels better.  It will be returned when the ice is gone.  Sorry for any inconvenience.
