Highly disappointed in the ATSC 3.0 rollout down here in the Detroit area. There are five main channel .1 feeds on WMYD, of which three are only in 720p and 2 are 1080p (upconverted 1080i). No 4K HDR. I will definitely wait until ATSC 3.0 tuners are available and CHEAP. I’ll let others beta test thi...

Sinclair buys into Russian agitprop (agitation propaganda) just like Faux News.

Well, they are doing just opposite right now. ATSC 3.0 stacked in one channel with very low(3.6Mbps ish) bitrate to make sure they have the 5 year clock get started. all channels are washed out. I understand they do not have much 4K/HDR video just yet. but please give it a higher picture quality at...

Ok. I don’t know much of these things, however, I do have an ATSC 3.0 tuner on my Sony X900H. In looking at the signal diagnostic affer a rescan on Dec. 7th, it shows this: 20.1 - Physical Channel 25 - Modulation 8VSB - 539.994 MHz 20.2 - Physical Channel 32 - Modulation 8VSB - 580.993 MHz 20.3 - P...

I see nothing on RF31 anymore. Wholly different modulation system. It may be there, but you'll need an ATSC 3.0 tuner or dongle to watch it. My Channel Master DVR lets me scan individual channels, and I was curious if I would see a signal, but not be able to lock it in. But yes it can't even tell t...

Bdl: it’s not that easy. Sinclair has contracts and non-competes that prevent us from applying at 5 or 12. Plus if you try to break the contract, they go after you for thousands, sometimes tens of thousands of dollars, in “liquidated damages” plus attorney fees. Which isn’t possible if you’re makin...

I just did another rescan and have 20.1, 20.2, 20.3.

Yup, so do I.

Rescanned both TVs and I see the new feeds from WXYZ, WJBK and WDIV for 20.1, 20.2 and 20.3.

Expect another one soon as WXYZ moves a subchannel or two off from RF25 elsewhere...like WKBD.

Same here. Won’t see it again until if/when I decide to buy an ATSC 3.0 receiver.

I do believe sometime soon WKBD is going to pick up one of WXYZ’s subchannels to compensate for having a WWJ ATSC 3.0 feed on WMYD.

WMYD 20.1 ATSC 1.0 is on WXYZ, 20.2 is on WDIV, 20.3 is on WJBK. I see duplicates on my receiver right now. Soon they will shutoff the actual WMYD feeds and start the process of playing around with ATSC 3.0 I expect to have to rescan my box to get rid of the dead feeds, but we will see. Another TV d...

Per scroll appearing on the stations main channel.

You may need to rescan, folks.

WWJ should have taken on a Scripps subchannel instead of WKBD doing it for the move to WMYD’s ATSC 3.0

WWJ has the room for it. Instead of bringing on this crap.

Yes.

It’s the fastest I ever nuked a digital subchannel.

Religious crap.

Ypsi: any company is automatically better than Sinclair. I doubt Sinclair will change its approach to WBSF CW 46. Sinclair believes there will be higher value for the spectrum when NextGen TV launches. Plus for some unknown reason, Flint’s CW station outperforms nearly every other mid-sized market ...

Herm: that could be. If they already know who I am, then I suggest 25-66’s management take one of the following paths of action. 1. Fire the ASSistant GM/Promotions Director, the In Over Her Head News Director, the Director of Declining Sales, and the HR Director/Party Planner for years of well doc...

If the station management is reading this.

SINCLAIR SUCKS.
