It decoded just long enough for only one of two autologgers to get it. de Andrew OH EN91

Aug. 30, 2019, 5:09 p.m. I know there were other markets that also had a large number of DTVs go off the air or share in the repack. Milwaukee was one of them due to Chicago hoarding tons of channels. There was nothing left. Then you have the East Coast markets where you have full-power DTVs shoved into channels with overlapping coverages. de Andrew OH EN91

Aug. 30, 2019, 5:07 p.m. [16:11] Yeah Jim, this area will just not fit any more DTVs. We're wedged between several other major markets, which I've mentioned. The repack forced I think 5 stations off the air (or to share) here. That just had to happen, 'cause there literally was no room. de Andrew OH EN91

WHTV and WJAC over WQHS 34, WBDT and WSOC-CD over WVIZ 26 just to name a few.

Aug. 19, 2019, 2:17 p.m. WLFM-LP 6 is desperately trying to remain on analog 6, so they can fulfill their agreements with the Cleveland Cavaliers and Browns. They've deseptively led them to believe they're a radio station, when in fact, they're a TV station. They will likely be forced off of 6 in September unless the FCC approves their request for an extension. But they have a CP to move to DT 20. de Andrew OH EN91

Aug. 12, 2019, 7:29 p.m. Many tropo conditions have very moist air in the low levels under the inversion. Too much and UHF attenuation increases. de WRH ON FN03

Aug. 12, 2019, 7:29 p.m. [19:26] That's why although UHF is usually best for tropo, during some openings it seems like VHF/FM is better. de WRH ON FN03

Aug. 12, 2019, 7:23 p.m. And the accuracy highly doubtful. The luf is not clear-cut like an muf. There are other parameters involved - moisture/vegetation attenuation increases at higher freqs. de WRH ON FN03

Aug. 12, 2019, 7:22 p.m. [18:35] Yes. But to draw a map of thicknesses (or luf), you would need the full resolution of the met model with every reported layer. Very processor intensive. de WRH ON FN03

Aug. 8, 2019, 9:29 p.m. I suspect all that's needed is new software for SDRs... But, yeah, I hope somebody builds a good box for DXing 3.0 de Ed W-KY EM56

Aug. 8, 2019, 8:49 p.m. Bill, let's hope with the rollout of ATSC 3.0 tuners, those aren't even more dumbed down. Scanning for DX is not an option. We need tuners with manual tuning. de Andrew OH EN91

Aug. 8, 2019, 8:36 p.m. I'm cautiously optimistic that ATSC 3.0 with its tiered reception will help us. A distant sig might only have to be a few dB stronger than the local instead of 15. (?) de WRH ON FN03

Aug. 8, 2019, 5:13 p.m. But a 50 kW FM travels only 40-60 mi. while a 50 kW AM travels hundreds of mi. like analog TV. So why would a DXer want AM to die like ATV? FM & DTV seem to be in the same boat: packed like sardines & the signals don't go anywhere. Quality vs. Distance de indysteve IN EM69

Aug. 8, 2019, 3:09 p.m. At some point, some of these FM's must become money-losers and the band will slowly open up. de WRH ON FN03

Aug. 6, 2019, 7:07 p.m. I'm not sure why, but WOHZ-CD was basically non-existent when it was on 41. The repack channel is essentially the same thing. I think the LDs, once they come on the air around here, this includes WYFX-LD 32 in a week or two, will kill a lot of any remaining DX channels. de Andrew OH EN91

Aug. 6, 2019, 7:06 p.m. WOHZ-CD 20/41 Mansfield just fired up their transmitter, and it's blasting away channel 20 from my Doylestown autologger. It's quite strong for a low power at 50 miles. The SNR is above 60%... not good for DX on that channel. de Andrew OH EN91

Aug. 6, 2019, 1:42 p.m. Btw, affiliates are rare in Canada now. Almost all O&O. Thus so much standardization. CTV This. CTV That. For CBC, it's rare to see even local branding (like CBC Toronto, etc.). de WRH ON FN03

Aug. 6, 2019, 1:41 p.m. [13;39] CKWS & CHEX are affiliates rather than O&O, so they use a mix. The bugs now say "Global ....", but their local news is still branded with callsigns. No channel branding though. de WRH ON FN03

Aug. 6, 2019, 1:40 p.m. My local CJMT-40 has been 40.1 for years - instead of 69.1. de WRH ON FN03

Aug. 6, 2019, 1:39 p.m. CJOH used to brand themselves with their callsign. Now they're just CTV Ottawa. CKWS still brands their news with their callsign, I think, unless they're now Global Kingston. I never saw Canadian TV stations brand themselves with the channel number like what occurs here in the US. de Andrew OH EN91

Aug. 6, 2019, 1:35 p.m. I've noticed a trend with teeny-weeny little callsigns. In Canada, it's impossible to see a callsign on air. Luckily most still put it in the TSID. de WRH ON FN03

Aug. 6, 2019, 1:31 p.m. TVO is probably going to use the Kitchener channel 28 transmitter for Chatham?? That's my guess, but Kitchener hasn't moved yet, so Chatham is temporarily using the old Windsor channel 32 transmitter. de Andrew OH EN91

Aug. 5, 2019, 1:42 p.m. Bill, I did not verify the TSID, but I have verified that CICO-32 is in fact on 19 because that is what several autologgers show. A couple weeks ago, I drove up to my portable spot and logged it before WKYC took over the channel. If it was Toronto, I wouldn't at least had other signals, particularly 47, which was dead. It had to be CICO-32. de Andrew OH EN91

Aug. 5, 2019, 1:28 p.m. I'm not sure what the status is of CICO-59. I've noticed RabbitEars showing they're supposed to move from 33 to 28, but I saw an autologger receive CIII Stevenson ON on 33 already. So CICO-59 cannot also be on 33. de Andrew OH EN91

Aug. 2, 2019, 2:38 p.m. If the FCC had commons sense, they would space stations near the lake at distances further apart than normally allowed. We all know the lake generates its own tropo. But since the FCC is backwards in their thinking, they place stations along the lake closer together because they ignore tropo and say that since no one lives in the lake, they cannot be interferred upon despite huge overlapping coverages. de Andrew OH EN91

Aug. 1, 2019, 5:05 p.m. Tr [16:14] KTIV 14/4, Sioux City, IA 464 mi. from Milford, IL. Received by both autologgers from 34' & 104' antennas. de indysteve IN EM69

Aug. 1, 2019, 4 p.m. I hope in the future they'll be more sharing, to open up more channels. de WRH ON FN03

Aug. 1, 2019, 4 p.m. With these changes, I'll be going from 23 DX channels to 22. The final total will be 9. de WRH ON FN03

Aug. 1, 2019, 3:53 p.m. Wow Bill, WPXJ looks much stronger for you now. Sorry to see that... looks like you lost a DX channel. de Andrew OH EN91

Aug. 1, 2019, 3:53 p.m. I'm guessing WPXJ is coming from new QTH 62 mi. away (vs. 80). Sig on 24 is 100/98 vs. 69/51 on 23. de WRH ON FN03

Aug. 1, 2019, 3:51 p.m. It sounds like WPXJ/WEAO/WOIO/WJET are coordinating de Andrew OH EN91

Said to be running temp low power at low height. Will be 15kw 700 feet higher. Moved from N of Kingston to Poughkeepsie area. New Log. de dtvdxer NY FN31

Aug. 1, 2019, 1:58 p.m. Chris, 37 is a nice virtual channel. de Andrew OH EN91

Aug. 1, 2019, 1:49 p.m. For those looking for WNWT NYC sharing on WJLP-3 "MeTV", WNWT has changed virtual channel to 37, with 37-1 "NJ News" and 37-2 "WNWT WX". de dtvdxer NY FN31

Aug. 1, 2019, 1:37 p.m. Ed, I use a lot of filtering before my preamp, but an LTE filter was not necessary here. I have a combination of UVSJ/HLSJ's and DTV channel (6 MHz wide) notch filters... has helped a lot. I use Tin Lee. I've never ordered from Microwave, but I know they're in Syracuse. de Andrew OH EN91

Aug. 1, 2019, 1:33 p.m. Not yet, Andrew... Well on the way to 900, tho de Ed W-KY EM56

Aug. 1, 2019, 1:16 p.m. ... I see a call to Microwave Filter Company in my near future :-( de Ed W-KY EM56

Aug. 1, 2019, 1:16 p.m. 13:11 But WTTV's tower is half way to Bloomington, while satellite WTTK, Kokomo has its ant. on the WXIN tower at the Indy ant. farm. WTTV not really needed for Indy viewers OTA. de indysteve IN EM69

Aug. 1, 2019, 1:15 p.m. I emailed WOUC and told them that their 7 kW wasn't enough. Trip said they could easily go up to 29 kW. de Andrew OH EN91

Aug. 1, 2019, 1:15 p.m. Oh, and, btw... New local (just down the road) cell tower is up... Looks like another 300 footer... Not operational, yet, but, the clock is ticking... de Ed W-KY EM56

Aug. 1, 2019, 1:12 p.m. Jim... ya suppose many of these lo-ch stns will go for power increase to get over QRM / QRN issues ? de Ed W-KY EM56

Aug. 1, 2019, 1:10 p.m. WVIR has a *why is this happening* page about repack. They didn't want to end upon low VHF...that or channel share. They didn't want to share. de Jim-T MO EM37

Aug. 1, 2019, 1:05 p.m. Ed, recently noticed when WTTV repacks to 27, old top mounted ch. 4 bat wings come down. 27 ant. top mounted @ 1181' w/DA, very little sig. south. 48 has been side mounted. de indysteve IN EM69

Aug. 1, 2019, 1:03 p.m. Ed, regarding the Memphis "rash", I find it interesting if I can receive 100-125 mile tropo from Toledo and Detroit, if I can get it to decode at home. But if I'm DXing at my portable spot in Medina, those are all considered pests out there and I cannot escape from them often. It's just all about location. Pittsburgh is more of a problem here at 95 miles. Expect to see more pathetic 100-mile reports from me after the repack, 'cause that may be all I get. de Andrew OH EN91

Aug. 1, 2019, 1:03 p.m. Tnx Jim... That'll have WGGS & WVIR jumping to ch 2 on the same day de Ed W-KY EM56
