KSAZ and KUTP Technical Difficulties

I noticed around 11:45 PM KSAZ and KUTP appear to be having technical difficulties. KSAZ is completely off the air. KUTP has a black screen with no audio on 45.2 - 45.5 and a black screen with audio on 10.2. 45.1 has no logo on screen. The NextGen 10.1 and 45.1 were good with logos on screen and no issue.

At 12 AM NextGen 45.1 went to black screen with no audio. ATSC1 45.1 is still broadcasting normal programming with no logo.

A few minutes after 12 AM, NextGen 10.1, which was good when I checked it at 12 AM, now has this on screen.

Update: Checking in at 9 AM NextGen 10.1 now has a black screen and everything else is the same. Hopefully they get it fixed by the 10 AM College Football game or have the sense to air it on 45.1 as the only one of their Channels sill on the air, otherwise I expect they will get a lot of complaints.

As of 9:45 AM via my antenna, 10.1 is fine. 45.1 briefly mapped to RF 26.3, then disappeared when I tried to get it back (might be my TV; I usually have to rescan when something like this happens). 10.2 is gone, while 10.3-10.5 have black screens.

On YTTV, 10 is good, while 45 has framing issues, with a horizontal black bar just above the bottom of the screen.

Just checked. NextGen 10.1 and 45.1 are back to normal now. Everything else is the same including black screen with audio on 10.2. This is with the ADTH NextGenTV Box. I will try a a rescan and maybe switch the antenna to the TV itself just to see what it does.

Edit: Right after I post this I just checked KSAZ ATSC1 again and now it appears to be back on the air. I didn't even rescan yet.

Edit 2: As of 10:12 AM KUTP appears to be back to normal.
