When Larry Langford chose the call letters WUBU, he worked at WMAQ 670, and the people at NBC Channel 5 would tease him about "Sit Ubu sit, good dog" from the production company who did "Family Ties". Larry said it meant "You Be You", once a popular expression.

Like many high net worth individuals, I suspect he is Conservative when it involves his own assets. I don't remember him mentioning much about politics. In addition to my personal knowledge pertaining to social issues, I will post this quote from an Mlive interview. Seger says Hillary Clinton is hi...

I saw my first UHF TV Receiver in the late 1950s in a neighbor's house. I was fascinated by it, and had dreams about tuning in all the UHF Channels. That actually happened during a tropo event 15 or so years later, more or less. There were a few missing channels, but not that many, in the 14-30 range.

Old Bob's a lefty. He won't be tuning into the new 910 superstation.

I remember some openings in 1970 and around the late 1970s to early 1980s that were unusual. One in 1970 brought in all the VHF TV stations in Chicago in Genesee County, especially WLS-TV 7 and WTTW 11 with 316 kW from the Marina City transmitter area. Others were on Hancock with reduced ERP and not...

There have been other complaints recently to the International Bureau where they were ordered to go off the air or reduce power.

It's apparent that there are just too many stations squeezing in for the number of channels. Ultimately, only way to fix this would be to expand the band.

#3 is probably more interesting than #2 because many have been forgotten because of tight playlists that mainly "test" #1s.

Here's the technical specifications for a similar antenna to the Clearstream above, but with a wire screen which makes it more unidirectional rather than bidirectional, so more UHF gain, but doesn't work on VHF. In your area, I would assume that the VHF stations normally available are WWTV 9 and WJR...

Which antenna do you have? If it is directional, you should have a rotator or at least be able to turn it by hand to enhance the number of stations and reception. Here's the Data Sheet on the Winegard HD-7694. https://www.perfect-vision.com/WebSupport/webstore/spec-sheets/HD7694P.pdf Solid Signal ac...

I'm sure that Cars 108 is happy about it too. If anyone complains about CKBG interference, it's likely to get more attention. If any complaints get to the international bureau, the translator will be ordered by the FCC to reduce power or go off the air until the interference can be resolved by some ...

The Beatles were Del Shannon's support act in England during his tour in 1963 and Del Shannon was the first American artist to cover a Lennon/McCartney song that same year with "From Me To You". It entered the Billboard Hot 100 on 29 June, becoming the first Lennon–McCartney composition to make the...

Charles Schwab seems to have gotten worse, and more like other authoritarian brokerages and banks that make it difficult to withdraw your money and act like it is theirs.

As for socialism, you can print money and pay people money for nothing, but if there is no value added, all you get is inflation.

There is so much noise on Low VHF now. High VHF is better but is needs more ERP than most have.

I wonder though if the database reference numbers are based on something in the FCC database which shifted all subsequent files because of a missing or extra file. Kind of like a numerical question skip error made on your SAT test answer sheet, and all subsequent answers are all wrong except by chan...
