HSN is probably leaving WPXD soon, as will QVC probably. Those WPXD subs will probably be replaced by Doozy and Defy, and QVC will probably be moved to 20.2. As for QVC and HSN on WADL, those channels pay their affiliates big bucks, that's why there are duplicates in so many markets The Katz duplic...

I actually think we might lose Antenna TV so that Doozy or Defy can be aired here. I really wish Antenna TV would pay its affiliates, so then their affiliation deals would be more secure. Or that Nexstar would buy one of the Detroit LPTVs or class As (those don't affect ownership limits)

Scripps made deals with the competitors 2 broadcasts 20.3's ATSC 1.0 signal, in exchange they get to utilize the 3.0 space 4 broadcasts 20.2 in 1.0 and they get some 3.0 space 50 was originally going to broadcast 7.3, so that RF25 could carry 20.1, but that was deemed unnecessary. Yet 62 (50's siste...

It's time for an update:

Twist is going on 38.8, also...

I read a report on Scripps-owned WCPO's website that says that Doozy and Defy will be going on the 48 Ion O&Os, and also on the 61 other Scripps stations. So it looks like they'll be on 7.4 and 20.3

My predictions: Antenna TV 80s: WMYD 20.3 Doozy: WPXD 31.6 or .5 Defy: 31.5 or .6 Twist: WADL 38.2 QVC will probably be on 7.4, Scripps stations have been adding QVC and HSN all over the country. 3 reality channel. Yikes. Is Antenna 80s real or are you hoping they'll split? Antenna TV 80s is suppos...

My predictions:

Antenna TV 80s: WMYD 20.3
Doozy: WPXD 31.6 or .5
Defy: 31.5 or .6
Twist: WADL 38.2

QVC will probably be on 7.4, Scripps stations have been adding QVC and HSN all over the country.

I wonder when/if Laff and Bounce will be moving to WPXD.

A 20.4 channel has been activated on RF25, airing HSN.

And per zap2it, effective Mar 1,

Court TV will be on 31.2
Grit on 31.3
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...
