caughtintheact Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 It appears that UBCTV has been off the air since about 0100 hours today. All I am getting is one of the following messages: E38 service not currently running, low signal, searching for satellite signal, or looking for signal on xxxxx (frequency). I've tried unplugging the receiver but that doesn't change anything, searched news and the Post and Nation, but no indications that UBCTV is down (except my TV set) and can't call anyone there for a few hours yet. Anyone else experiencing the same thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rono Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 had to endure these problems for many years until I discovered that you can watch all the "ubc" channels on the satelite for free. My advise: buy a satelite and cancel your subscription Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astral Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 (edited) Have you tried calling UBC to check? It may just be your dish is F**ked or it is raining Edited December 28, 2005 by astral Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
