Re: WNWO (NBC) Toledo granted FCC license for new 275 kW DTV transmitter.

I get a great signal from WUPW from 43 miles away with a directional UHF antenna. WUPW is 65kW from 1214 foot up.
I figure WNWO should come in very strong when they bring that new Transmitter online.

Re: Local4 says it will refer to “militia” as “domestic terrorists”

If you plan out kidnapping and possibly killing a sitting governor, raiding a state capitol building and taking hostages, you are terrorist.

Pretty simple.

Re: WNWO (NBC) Toledo granted FCC license for new 275 kW DTV transmitter.

My suspicion is that WNWO is going be the ATSC 3.0 “lighthouse” for the Toledo market, ringtailfox. Sinclair is all in on ATSC 3.0 It will be nice to have a strong signal from them in ATSC 1.0 the meantime, though. As far as the Detroit market, from what WXYZ support told me, sounds like WMYD will b...

Re: WNWO (NBC) Toledo granted FCC license for new 275 kW DTV transmitter.

Interestingly, I receive WTVG and WUPW decently from 42 miles away. WNWO should be an easy catch from the new transmitter.

WNWO (NBC) Toledo granted FCC license for new 275 kW DTV transmitter.

Keep an eye on RF23 over the coming days. They have been granted license to bring their new DTV transmitter online.

275 kW from 1391 ft up is gonna be one heckuva blowtorch.

Re: Scripps buying ION Media

Scripps will off load all of its WMYD ATSC 1.0 content to WPXD with this agreement, IMO. That frees up WMYD completely for ATSC 3.0 broadcasts.

The spun off stations like WPXD are still to be part of the ION network and will run Scripps/Katz subchannels.

Re: RePack Phase 8 started

.... I use a special antenna for WJBK, along with a combiner to add the UHF ones via UHF antenna. ... Is this some kind of diplex combiner or just a simple combiner? Does anybody here use diplex filters/combiners to put their vhf and uhf sources on the same line? If so, what ones? Just a simple spl...

Re: RePack Phase 8 started

NIce strong signal on all of these:

WJBK, WDIV, WXYZ, WMYD, WPXD, WKBD, WTVS and WWJ.

I'm good to go.

If I'm not in the rabbitears.info green zone of signal strength, I remove it from my channel lineup.

Re: AT&T Questions Broadcasters' Use of TV Spectrum

Of course ATT wants broadcasting killed. They will get the spectrum plus then you are hostage to their TV services like DirectTV and/or Uverse.
