Anyone else notice that KOCE and KCET are off the air this evening? Or is it that they moved to different channel numbers?

I get them both loud and clear right now with Dish Network.

Yes! Going to call Cox on Monday. At 7 p.m. channels 9-12, inclusive, were out. I only noticed or cared cuz I love the Simpsons. Long ago I harassed them to delete 1-2 days off my bill. Long enough ago that I don't remember if it was tv or ISP. I intend to do it again.

Also, I get more junk mail/advertising from Cox than I do from politicians or any other source. Going to talk to them about that too.

I live in Goleta and channels 9-12 are working fine.

A few of my channels went black yesterday. Tried restarting Cox box and that didn't help. On the Mesa.

I lost 8, 9,and 10 at 5:30pm yesterday, I called Cox tech support and suffered through their dismal automated support. After half an hour of useless "help" I managed to bring up a human, who was even worse. He tried to warn me that if they come out and the problem is with my cables I will be billed for the call, but for $5 a month I can "Buy" insurance. Time to look into Dish. Cox is a miserable evil monopoly.

I'm in the middle of Goleta near Fairview- the 4 channels were off last night but they are on this a..m. (Sunday 8:30 or so a.m.)

They were ok at my house, but I went to bed early.

I watched KCET last night from their over-the-air broadcast from 9 - 10:30 using an antenna. I gave up on COX and Dish. KOCE has been noticeably intermittent lately though.

Cox has a cable outage since last evening. It is still being worked on.

I sure "noticed" - on the Mesa. And if there is to be an omission, my recommendation is their onslaught of (needless) mail.
