    "ThisTV" on G16

    ADVERTS
    noticed recently that the "ThisTV" feed is no longer the "national" feed. They are using a feed from KTLA-DT2 Los Angeles. Seen commercials for KTLA programs on there



    just some food for thought......

    Defending National Champions
    current number 3 in the country (but doesnt mean much honestly)
    number 5 in the pairwise (this means everything...top 15 teams get in the tourney)

    Life is good

    Thanks for the info, haven't watched it enough to figure that out. Too many commercials on either one of them for me.

    Too bad it wasn't KTLA itself. Used to have a subscription to KTLA for many years on the Videocipher. All Superstations should be ITC.

    The FCC adopted Clear Channel Broadcasting to reach the masses, Superstations should be ITC.
    DN will not allow that.

    sadly most superstations are just CW or My affiliates. I liked when they were truly independent. WSBK still is an independent now (and they have the 3 stooges on Sunday mornings)

    So I am out of luck until I can get a hd box. Hurts the eyes to watch ABC at times. Wonder why the picture is so pixels at times?

    they are using very little bandwidth for it...qwert noted it in that thread
    The video bitrate is only 770 Kbps vs. the others around 1.57 - 2.48 MBps.

    Sadly "The Three Stooges" are no longer being shown on WSBK since football started. They switched to Saturday around 2PM then after two weeks went off completely.

    I agree 100% that independent channels were much better years ago, but now are mostly CW or MY affiliates.
