Court TV Mystery on 31.4

CHWI 16's local 6PM newscast started by airing the first few minutes of CTV News Barrie. It had the CTV News Barrie logo in the lower right corner, with the CTV News Windsor logo plastered over it. This lasted about 2 minutes

The geographic center of Michigan is in Wexford County, 5 miles Northeast of Cadillac. So technically, if it is South and East of Wexford County, it is Southeastern Michigan, though not in the way most people think about it. Well yeah, but when you describe a region of Michigan with a cardinal dire...

Wow Local 4! Your winter weather advisory text crawl was so educational! I never knew that Midland & Bay Counties were part of Southeast Michigan! I love a good geography lesson! "Metro Detroit and downriver" Wow Local 4! I never knew that the name of my beloved downriver region should be lowercase,...

If CHWI didn't have that weak UHF 17 repeater, WHNE could have had that frequency. The repeater is absolutely frivolous, the Wheatley signal can be received here in Melvindale with an indoor antenna, yet the repeater signal is nowhere to be seen here. If their main transmitter can cover Melvindale, ...

I can't see what use Canada would have for the new standard. Due to CRTC red tape, subchannels are very rare in the great white north, so they wouldn't be able to take advantage of one of ATSC 3.0's coolest improvements (more subchannels). And channel sharing on the ATSC 1.0 stations would be confus...

Really cool! One interesting observation I made is that the 586 area code was obviously not implemented yet, as their number has a 313 area code, despite being in Mount Clemens. The 586 was implemented in 2001. EDIT: I found out that 586 was split from 810, which split from 313 in 1993. This would m...

Monroe County should be split between the Detroit and Toledo DMAs, since the northern communities are sorta like an extension of Downriver. The Detroit DMA communities should be: Ash Township Berlin Township (except for Estral Beach) Carleton Exeter Township (except for Maybee Village) London Townsh...

WTVG has been approved too

WPXD has already been divested to Inyo, and they have agreed to give Scripps channels priority

Qubo, Ion Plus, and Ion Shop will cease operations by the end of the month. Many of the stations that Scripps has kept, like WPXN NYC, have been replacing QVC with Laff. I can say with almost absolute certainty that Grit's gonna leave WADL and get picked up on WPXD. Even though WPXD got sold to anot...

I'm just curious. What exactly is on Channel 26?

CTV 2

This better not screw up my reception of WHNE. I don't think that adjacent interference really exists in digital, but I'm not entirely sure.

I've been in touch with the owner of rabbitears.info, regularly emailing him with updates and corrections on the info listed on his website whenever possible. The listing for CHWI-60 however is incomplete. It lists no video resolution, it doesn't say whether or not SAP audio is being transmitted, an...

The FCC should get rid of the setup wherein there are zones with different power limits. I know it's because of terrain differences, but it doesn't help the roughly terrained zone (zone II) as much as it hurts the flat zones (zones I and III). Plus I think it might be unconstitutional. The Low VHF l...
