I have lost Channel 5.1. I was told that my set up could pick up the digital signal but I can't seem to get that channel anymore. Even 5.2. Anyone know if KENS went to digital and I was lied to?

I saw an ad that said they were going to lower the analog power to test out the new system. I don't know the dates or if it really will affect reception. I didn't really pay attention because it does not affect me. Maybe that's the cause.

Have you tried rescanning? The 5.1 signal moved from UHF channel 55 to UHF channel 39 on November 1. Your receiver probably just needs to rescan to find it in its new location.

FYI, you'll need to rescan again in February, because the two channel 41 signals that are sharing UHF 39 with KENS will be moving to UHF 41 as their permanent assignment.
