Oct. 31, 2019, 9:10 p.m. Ed.. I was noticing that when your local WPSD moves off 32 to go to 19 in the spring, no-oone is replacing WPSD on 32 in your area. Closest will be WNPX in TN, and their DA somewhat recudes signal in your direction. Meanwhile, enjoy ch 19 now while you can. de dtvdxer NY FN31

Oct. 28, 2019, 2:08 p.m. Just an observation - living near the Rocky Mtn Front Range was a microcosm of QRM to DTV signals. Multipath distortion would kill DTV signals, even at 40 miles. de Jim-T MO EM37

Oct. 16, 2019, 5:06 p.m. In the case of local WKBN Youngstown selling its station with massive tower height and power, they paired with WYTV.

Oct. 16, 2019, 2:14 p.m. WALV went off I believe in order to install new ant. for 17 on its tower. WALV carries MeTV and that's it, which is also carried on its sister station WTHR, 13.3, so no big loss. de indysteve IN EM69
Oct. 16, 2019, 12:58 p.m. What's the purpose of WISH 17? Isn't it located in the same spot as WISH 9? So the purpose is solely because people don't know how to purchase VHF antennas anymore? de Andrew OH EN91
Oct. 16, 2019, 12:55 p.m. In a similar scenario in my market, WOIO-DRT was forced off of 24 by WEAO, and they moved to 18. But the FCC didn't let the channel 18 application just sit there. It was approved quickly. de Andrew OH EN91
Oct. 16, 2019, 12:51 p.m. That should be channel -17-. de dtvdxer NY FN31
Oct. 16, 2019, 12:51 p.m. [11:27] I don't have whole story, but WISH(DRT) looks like its a displaced "LD" with no place to go. They have no rights to ch 19 after 10/18, and as a Class A WALV-CD does. WALV-CD should not be forced off the air. de dtvdxer NY FN31
Oct. 16, 2019, 12:47 p.m. Steve, what is the purpose of WISH 17? Can't they just go off the air, and viewers would still have WISH 9? So technically WALV-CD can tell them to just go away. de Andrew OH EN91
Oct. 16, 2019, 11:27 a.m. WALV-CD 46, Indy has left the air. It can't move to 17 until WISH (DRT) leaves 17 and WISH still doesn't have approval to move to 26 as filed months ago. de indysteve IN EM69

Oct. 10, 2019, 12:08 p.m. [11:05] There are several of these DTV America stations that transmit from downtown Cleveland. I don't think it has to do with the pattern. It's the fact that they basically transmit from a hole. The terrain varies several hundred feet, and the low power DTVs don't get through. But the path between downtown Clevland and NW Ohio where Chad is at... it's mostly lake and flat Midwest. de Andrew OH EN91

Oct. 3, 2019, 5:19 p.m. IN Washington, WETA was assigned to go to Land-Mobile14... and had to apply for another channel.. some musical chairs followed with MPT and others and WETA ended up on WMPT's assigned ch 31. Low power WWTD-LD ended up on 14 apparently peacefully co-existing w/ land mobiles. de dtvdxer NY FN31
Oct. 3, 2019, 5:09 p.m. Oh, and channel 15 was another land-mobile here, but WEWS got that one obviously. So the loopholes seem to only apply here. de Andrew OH EN91
Oct. 3, 2019, 5:07 p.m. Channel 18 is land-mobile in Pittsburgh, and I was told that it would NOT be used here in the repack due to my proximity to Pittsburgh. But yet WOIO got their DRT on that channel. They're cranking out lots of interference to land-mobile I'm sure, but I've heard of no efforts to make them vacate 18 like WYBN-LD is doing. de Andrew OH EN91
