Re: The Good Old Days of Full-Powered Analog TV

WLNS reached as far as Taylor into the Detroit DMA with a pretty clear signal back then, of course on low band VHF, which can make those distances.

Re: Metro Detroit CB

I had a Starduster back in the 70's, must have been a good sunspot cycle, I talked to Vancouver, Texas, and Florida off of it completely barefoot. I had the same luck with a Maco V-5/8 in the late 90's/early 2000's. I still have radios in all my vehicles, and am putting a tower up in the Spring. One...

Hey thanks for all the requests! I think I've answered everyone. Most seem to like the cranberry destruction best, uses up the best of the renderings and stove top scrapings.

Re: CMU Sells Flint WCMZ-TV In FCC Spectrum Auction

Tip of the iceberg, many other stations will be forced to move to accommodate these stations. Stations already below channel 37 are being moved to deal with all the interference issues, and some really weird stuff is being proposed by the feds.

Re: CMU Sells Flint WCMZ-TV In FCC Spectrum Auction

It will either be filled by a station coming down from above channel 36, or will be left vacant to help protect adjacent markets from interference. The pool will be full.
