Interesting as WKBW-7 is currently broadcasting on 38-1, but their promo on WKBW indicates they will be on 7 after the analog shutdown (or do they only mean that their program pid will say 7). WNGS does have an application for channel 46-1. I'm just worried that if WNGS stays with WKBW-7 and they do switch to channel 7, or if they do get their own transmitter on 46-1 that the antenna patterns will be directional and I will no longer be able to recieve their OTA signal. This is happening to other stations along the US/Canada boarder.
As it is less than a year to the analog shutdown, WNGS bradcasting on WKBW's subchannel might only be for short term untill they get their transmitter running. This may be why they are only using the Ku band signal to cut their costs in equipement, as it is only for less than a year to go now.
