Power spikes/dips at the station are rare, but possible. Flashing or other
problems between the transmitter power output and the antenna are also
possible. However, dips are likely to affect all receivers just about the
same, since data would be missing.
I've never heard anything bad about the LT-37131, but I have no information
about the Dish rcvr. You could probably get better feedback on these on
www.avsforum.com <http://www.avsforum.com/> .
If I were to guess, I'd say that there is much more likely to be a power
supply issue within the Dish receiver than at any single TV station. Except
for Florida (Florida Power and Light is legendary for power dips), power at
tv stations is not much of a problem, and most stations have filtered,
backed up power at transmitter and studio. I think the Dish receiver lacks
that.

OK, the receiver that works is in a Mitsubishi LT-37131 LCD and the one
having a problem with the station is in a Dish 622 receiver.

Giving the brand names of the receivers would help on this point.
John Willkie, who knows just a bit about PSIP/PSI/SI.
