Host Channel is Blank, No Listing, CurrChan Data is Incrementing

[othermbx]

I am in the San Francisco Bay Area (San Jose) and my box is using the latest firmware since 2009 (version .21). I use OTA only, no cable or cable card.

My HDD250 was working fine till around April 2010. Then the TV Guide listing stopped displaying and instead of a grid, the message "No data to display for this screen" appears. The clock is correct and advertisements are being displayed.

I tuned the box to OTA CBS 5.1 and went into the 753 menu. Host Channel is blank which was a surprise! On a subsequent screen, certain rows in the CurrChan column increment which tells me CBS 5.1 is the host channel.

HostSUFlags = 0xe6800000

Lastly, I checked if the missing grid is because I don't have any channels displayed. I used the Channel Editor but it showed the "no data to display for this screen..." message.

I'm at a loss at what could be wrong. Any guidance is much appreciated.

I now have exactly the same issue here in San Jose, for the past few days now.  Did you ever figure out what was wrong?

Thanks,
