50.5 Nosey?

Post by Splouge » Sun Jan 21, 2024 11:32 pm

50.5's PSIP name is now "Nosey". It's still airing StartTV though. Did they mean "Nest"?

I have a feeling that the Nosey network on streaming (trash TV 24/7) is coming to OTA… that could explain it…

Here comes the Jerry Springer weekend marathons. Another waste of digital bandwidth.

Whatever it is, it should be changing soon. 50.5 is now a test pattern

That’s a better program than what Nosey will be. Does the test pattern have an Indian on it like the old test patterns from back in the day?

No, it's on Sling TV that way too. They show Jerry Springer most of the day.

The only thing on Nosey I'd watch would be Blind Date not into Springer, Sally, Maury or Steve Wilkos which was finally cleared after not being cleared since fall of 2021 now on ARC West Michigan formerly CW7.

Right now, it says that the resolution on 50.5 is 1080i, making WKBD the second television station in the market to have dual 1080i's after Detroit Public TV (56). If something is going to be upgraded, I would expect it to be Comet. Although Nosey might be added somewhere, why broadcast it in HD?

It's been 1080i for about 2 years now

Update: The channel is now displaying a test pattern with a 1000hz tone. It may be changing to something else soon. I checked the WWJ 62.2 broadcast of StartTV and it seems to be normal. Could also be a technical difficulty moment. Image

While channel surfing in the wee hours Saturday, Nosey was airing the Jerry Springer Show reruns as a marathon with no commercials. Some of the shows, Jerry looked real young.

The program info was for Start TV and was also showing during the test pattern days.
