Re: WADL Tests on RF27

Although you said it's low priority, I'd like to ask if you're using a pre amp, what antenna you're using, and what kind of coax (RG6 or RG59) you're using. Make sure the preamp is getting power and that the antenna is aimed at the tri-point where Clinton Twp., St. Clair Shores, and Fraser meet. It...

RePack Phase 9 Started

We have 2 stations moving during this phase. WUDT-LD (Daystar) RF 23 to RF 8 (was supposed to have already moved) WADL (IND) RF 39 to RF 27 (already moved) This phase ends May 1, and is the last phase that will affect Detroit-area TV stations in the U.S. During the next phase, the only stations in t...

Re: RePack Phase 8 started

I'm getting all Detroit stations except WUDL and WLPC at my house in Melvindale UPDATE: I am able to get WUDL with an amp, and WLPC comes in when my antenna is in a really weird position. I may have already said this, but who's even keeping track? :razz My setup is a Clearstream 2 Max with a 12 dB ...

Re: WADL Tests on RF27

Pretty much a literal No Show in NW Det. Had a decent signal on RF39, just stutter and tiling on 27. This with an 8-bay screen array aimed at them. (edit) OK on a couple of other sets w different antennas, Still NG on main set/antenna. Might have to try re-aiming again, maybe replace lead-in coax. ...

Re: WADL Tests on RF27

Looks like the move is near of WADL from rf39 to its new repack home of rf27.Rescan to see the test on rf27 colour bars. Did a rescan and got em. Aren't they a little late to the party. Actually, they're early. They were moved from phase 8 (which ended March 13) to phase 9 (which ends May 1)

Re: RePack Phase 8 started

WHNE should add one more channel, 3.13 (like Detroit's area code!) As long as they don't allocate any bits to it, I'm OK with that! Keep the bits for the channels that need it! I meant that as more of a joke, but yeah, The Bob, Elliott, HSN 2, and JTV are allocated too many bits at the expense of H...

Re: RePack Phase 8 started

WHNE is going to be switching to virtual channel 3. On their Facebook, they made a post referring to their movie channel as "soon to be on channel 3.6"

They didn't offer that channel the last time I tuned in. A step in the right direction, I suppose. Isn't Cheddar owned by Scripps? I'm surprised it isn't a WMYD subchannel.
No, Cheddar is owned by Altice. Scripps owns Newsy

Re: RePack Phase 8 started

Maybe WUDT isn't going to move, maybe then WHNE can go to VHF 8! Or maybe I'm just wishfully thinking EDIT: They'd better move, or they'll have WNWO and WBSF on their WUDTail (I know, crappy pun) As for WADL, stations above 36 don't have to vacate until a mobile carrier says they want that frequency...
