Re: Cable systems that do not carry all network affiliates from their home DMA
Obvious thread bump as this got brought up in another thread. Comcast Xfinity in Sandusky is missing several stations from in-market Detroit (most notably WWJ), but it does have the Big Three from Flint/Saginaw. This system's lineup, overall, is straight out of 1990 -- it has only 40 channels and is...

Re: Comcast Removing Detroit and Lansing Channels
Took them 23 years to finally realize that the Cable Reform Act of 1996 exists. That was why WNWO was dropped from TCI's Downriver systems, which were based out of Woodhaven.

Re: WTOL may be removing MeTV
Tegna already owns WKYC in the Cleveland market. Nexstar was the company that bought WJW.

Re: WHPS 15.1
Definitely. I only got it once or twice when it was on RF33. A few days back I turned on RF15 expecting so see WEWS tropo only to be surprised to see WHPS.
For a Class A station their new transmitter is a true blowtorch.

Re: WTOL may be removing MeTV
WTOL 11.2 is my secondary Me TV affiliate, though I can only receive it once in a blue moon. With that, I ain't losing too much.

Re: Giant TBA on tomorrow's NBC schedule
Not only that, there is an interesting difference at 10:00 PM tonight (Monday September 16) as WDIV's listings show "Dateline NBC" which usually airs at that time. However, taking a look at WNWO's schedule, they list the NBC Primetime Preview show from 10:00-11:00, which is interesting because that...

In the Buffalo/Niagara region I have noticed alot more CDN ad's on Buffalo tv/radio, even the Buff PBS station dubs itself as Buffalo/Toronto since alot of canadians donate to that PBS station. Its always suprised me that the Det radio/tv didnt go after more revenue from this side of the river.I th...

Re: Old cable lineups
I find it interesting that Cartoon Network, WADL, and especially WWJ were dumped to the 90s. And still continued to have WWJ as the last channel in the lineup on the converted list. Thanks to a quirk on Zenith TV sets, those non-converter viewers who had Zenith TVs had WADL on cable channel 0, WWJ ...
