Damn. Never thought Red River would stick ANY money into their TV stations (they are buying up radio stations though)
I just need the FCC to approve KQDS's Aitkin translator (K39GG) to flash cut to digital
(KQDS is too far away from my location)
Well at least the folks that have the Fox Station in Pembina will have something extra to enjoy.....
I know my buddy will be happy. Soon he'll get TWO TV stations where he lives
(where he lives is the Fargo Market but its 80 miles or so away. He has an indoor antenna and only gets KVRR FOX Fargo (which the transmitter is maybe 25 miles away)

that is actually in Grand Forks, which while technically part of the Fargo/GF DMA (according to Nielsen) the station only covers Grand Forks proper
OK Thanks....I posted on the cell phone and when typing the Grand Forks name it never came out.....
I find that weird it only covers grand forks and not the fargo area too......
Fargo and Grand Forks are about 80 miles apart so other than the former CBS (now KRDK) and NBC the other networks have stations in both parts...
ABC is mainly due to a technical issue. WDAY 6 couldnt put their tower between the towns as CBC 6 in Winnipeg would have issues.
Fox has KVRR in Fargo (the tower is actually about 30 miles into Minnesota) and KBRR Thief RIver Falls, MN (But is for GF)
PBS has stations in both
now as for KCPM it is only 11,000 watts on a tower under 200 feet. The owner did (back in the analog days) have a translator in Fargo but they never converted it to digital. They mainly rely on cable (which right now they are not on in GF but are carried in Fargo)
Anywho back to your regular scheduled topic
I don't see it, Retro, coming to KCPM. Only KCPO in Sioux Falls is mentioned in this ONLY article I could find.

Where'd ya hear/read they're going to fire up the KCPM transmitter?? It's been OFF THE AIR for a few yrs now.
And ICE is right, it don't get to Fargo: http://rabbitears.info/contour.php?appid=1376915
Central Plains Media HAD a CP for a translator in Fargo but I understand it never was on the air. either analog or digital.
Waiting and watching for ANTENNA's appearance. Jeez, OTA is getting GREAT around here!
I thought it came back on the air in the beginning of the year. That's what someone posted at avs
Wasn't listed earlier, around noon, I looked.
Correction - Found it, under the call sign.
But that doesn't make it ON THE AIR, as it's NOT.
Not available on the local cable (midco) either.
BUT there is something going on as their website kcpm.tv is now 'Down for maintenance' . Previously it was just not maintained since 2011(?). (OLD schedules etc)
Will be nice if/when they return to the air.

back late 2014 it was on the air according to someone in EGF

Thats the info I am going off of.
I know its not on Midco but ironically its on cable (n)one in Fargo
Yeah, and I drove to within 10 miles of their TX site with a portable TV, and saw nothing. So i'm thinking it was just an exciter, no power amp. probably putting out maybe 10W.
And then off the air post in same thread referenced, Just scroll to post # 2017
earlier yet post #1825 by me. then post #1852 and it's been off the air until their, apparently, low power test.
