GetTV gets upgrade

Post by windsor » Tue Jan 07, 2020 4:57 pm

Looks as if GetTV is getting better programing selections in the near future as Sony buys into the network according to cord cutters news. :D

Seen locally on WHNE LD 14.2.

This will probably happen before RetroTV has there big change. Of course we are just two months away from WHNE LD moving to VHF 3

1/18- 3/13
Which if it follows the same pattern as before, most will wait to the very end and move on 3/13.

This is a low-power station that has not been assigned a timeframe for its frequency move. Contact the station for more details.

Does VHF 3 increase HD quality on the subchannels? Looks like they are 480p.

It won't make a difference

No. VHF-lo just makes it more difficult to hold a stable signal.

I guess it all depends on what you consider a stable signal. Currently CBC (RF 9) and Fox2 (RF 7) are the only VHF I can get, and they are considered Hi-VHF, but they are the most stable signals I get. I have multi-path issues with the Higher UHF signals, anything above 30 I can get periods of the channel dropping in and out. When CW50 was on RF 14 it was pretty solid signal. Since it moved to RF 34 I have had nights where the channel and sub channels are unwatchable do to multi-path interference.

Not all antennas have elements to pick up Lo-VHF, I think mine is good, but I won't know till WHNE moves.

I am looking forward to ATSC 3.0 which handles multipath much better, and will allow more channels at better quality. Of course that is either a new TV with a ATSC 3.0 tuner or a external ATSC 3.0 tuner box.
