This might be better asked in the Illinois forum. You can click the report button, and ask for it to be moved.

Hello Raymond. I don't think it's an antenna problem if you can hear other stations. I'm assuming you heard them before using the same antenna? If not, try going back to the original antenna. What I suspect is that maybe those frequencies became locked out. Try "holding" on one of the CTA channels for a while (when you know it should be busy) and see if you can hear anything. Give it a little while. If you can hear them while holding but not when scanning, then it is probably locked out of the scanning selections. Otherwise check your programming and make sure that the frequencies and the PL information is correct. Good luck with diagnosing the problem.
