Folks in Toledo area need a good VHF combo long range to snag Fox2 rf7 and a lot of the diginets they don't get like Movies!,Buzzr,H&I and Decades.
Also CW50 is now on rf34 not rf14 anymore.

Re: Antenna TV gone?
Wondering if he gets CITS 36.1 Hamilton instead WMNT Toledo. Otherwise, Mt. Pleasant also has a 36.1 too. Neither should be close, but not sure of his antenna setup.rugratsonline wrote: ↑Wed Jan 22, 2020 9:58 pmAs WMNT is a LPTV, it's too weak to re received far outside Toledo. And considering its current programming state, it's pointless.
Remember WUPW is now on RF 26. Does Detroit still have a LPTV 26 in analog? Doubtful, but possible. Once again, Mt. Pleasant has another frequency talked about... RF 26. So RF 26 and 36 in Mt. Pleasant. However, Mt. Pleasant is west of Bay City and an hour north of Lansing... So not that close to protect the frequencies. And I thought 26 was LPTV.
Re: Antenna TV gone?
When WLPC-CD was an unprotected LPTV, it was on analogue 26, but they moved to digital 40 and upgraded to a class A when CHWI's Windsor repeater moved to that same frequency in 2012, from its original position on channel 60, which was phased out in that year.
CKCO Sarnia was gonna move from analogue 42 to analogue 26, but now they are instead going silent later this year.

Re: Antenna TV gone?
Interesting... 48.2 and 48.3 are both color bars, yet register as 720p.

I can remember when Buckeye used WTVS to fill in for periods when WGTE didn't broadcast like during the summer months back in the 80's.ftballfan wrote: ↑Wed Jan 22, 2020 8:53 amWTVS can be offered in Toledo, but it's the only full-power Detroit station not carried at all by Buckeye (even in Bedford)Some Guy from Toledo wrote: ↑Mon Jan 20, 2020 4:38 pmYep, Bedford Township is practically the furthest Buckeye can offer the Detroit channels these days (and I'm about a half mile from the state line).80sTalkRadioFan wrote: ↑Mon Jan 20, 2020 9:57 amWMYD-TV 20 Detroit and it's subchannels are only available on Buckeye Broadband on the Michigan side of the border, namely Bedford township.

Re: Antenna TV gone?
WBGU had been reasonably reliable when it was on RF56, became perfectly reliable when it went to 27, and briefly perfectly reliable when it went to 22.TeddyBear wrote: ↑Wed Jan 22, 2020 2:44 pmNow WBGU is on 22.x.

Weeks later, WNWO moved from 49 to 23. Since then, WBGU is only watchable when trop is in.

Re: Antenna TV gone?
48 is now three-quarters basket case!
48.1 dark screen
48.2 color bars
48.3 color bars
48.4 Cozi TV
Sad to see this, as they had made a great coverage increase several months ago.

Re: Antenna TV gone?
The test pattern where Antenna TV used to be is a 720 quality too, so if it because Antenna TV again, I would be happy with that, especially if they actually put the 'pointer' in to show the 48 channels numbers despite the 36 RF channels they broadcast on. Anybody home at '48' to answer our questions about what happened to Antenna TV in Toledo?

Re: Antenna TV gone?
I'm near Temperance and the 20.x channels are among the easiest to receive.80sTalkRadioFan wrote: ↑Mon Jan 20, 2020 9:57 amWMYD-TV 20 Detroit and it's subchannels are only available on Buckeye Broadband on the Michigan side of the border, namely Bedford township. When I do a zip code search on AntennaTV's website, it says I should be able to get it on 20.2 with an antenna. Will have to try that, as I don't think it'll be back on WMNT any time soon.
Re: Antenna TV gone?
I'm going to have to get me a UHF corner reflector or something for Detroit as my periodic log is fixed/aimed at the Oregon, Ohio TV towers so that I can get from 11-36, but cannot get Detroit without something else facing more North than East.
Re: Antenna TV gone?
Talked with a Becky... not the homophobic older black lady.
1) 48.2 and .3 - will be fixed, as they are aware. I personally left a message twice about that, so the homophobic b!tch would not call me names, for doing them a favor.
2) 48.1 blank - nobody was even watching their own content on their own station. Shows how poor the station is in general- programming and resolution.
3) WMNT's website - way out of date, which they were not aware of.
4) Monitoring here - mentioned monitoring this site for issues and problems, along with rabbitears.
It's all up to the "head person," whom Becky was going to forward all of this to. I think she at least understands that what you put over the air, makes your reputation. Let's hope the management in and out of Toledo get it as well. Toledoans and allot of NW Ohioans are tired of this tax write off.
THIS (48.3) is also in 720 progressive, with a 480 interlace test pattern too. So BOTH are STILL in 720p, with a 480 SD graphic pattern, with wings.
I did not have time to go into the "COZI Squeeze" on 48.4. Wish I had enough time. On all of my monitor/sets, I must force the wide screen, as COZI is pinched left to right. Should never have to do this, as the other analog 48.x channels must show as stretched.

Re: Antenna TV gone?
48.2 has a poor-quality (black and white only) picture of Antenna TV on now (Thursday, 2/6/2020 at 5:10 pm). Are they making some progress with repairs? Update: Now at 8:00 pm it's in color!
