Improved SD Picture on WRIC - Richmond, VA

My wife and I feel like the SD picture quality on WRIC, Richmond, VA is vastly improved too. Is WRIC now uplinking the digital signal and not the analog signal?

In addition, over the past 4 weeks we have been complaining about the error in uplink message we were frequently receiving when watching WRIC; this too has stopped.

Just my observations.

I have to laugh at Young and KRON 4.

Dish broadcasted a 24/7 assault on Young where their channel was in place of their content.

Those broadcasts were very harsh and probably shamed them into a more reasonable agreement.

As mentioned, KRON 4 did this with a network affiliate and is now a nothing IND channel.

LOL

You would have thought that they would have learned their lesson by now. If I were Dish Nework, I would offer them LESS for the hassle.

So did they settle or just come to a cease fire?

I'm sure there will soon be 5 new threads on this, but we settle one and the next group rears its head: Dish, ComCorp Engaged in Retrans Dispute - 12/16/2008 8:51:00 AM - Multichannel News

This one (Communications Corp of America) is asking "less than $.02 per day", or .60/mo/station = $2.40/market/month. Looks like mostly La and east Tx.

It just emphasizes my point that DISH does better fighting these. If they didn't, you would soon be paying $2/mo/'free' channel.

Seems like these folks are going to be harder to deal with since they want twice as much as Young's price in which Dish did not see as fair either.
