Re: Flint TV Stations and their horrible signals.

Regarding the viability of PBS on channel 28, bear in mind that in virtually all of that former station's service area, one and sometimes two other PBS stations were carried on cable and satellite.

89.7's tower is near the East Beltline and I-96. 91.3's main competitor is Joy 99.3, not the stations you mentioned. 102.9 plays preaching programs almost the entire day. 89.7 plays Seventh Day Adventist talk programming and traditional hymnal music.
