    Nobody "lives" in New Mexico; they merely exist. 😏

    RabbitEars no response

    I'm sure Trip is updating. I get notices most nights. Keep in mind that RabbitEars is a side hobby; Trip has a full-time job, so the database is updated as he has time.

    Unable to access SatelliteGuys using Firefox

    For the past couple of weeks, I have been unable to access SatelliteGuys using the Firefox browser using the command SatelliteGuys.US. Instead, I get the message on the first page of the attached file. If I try the webpage just using SatelliteGuys.US, I get the message on the second page. I...

    MP4 OTA Testing

    Even so, whether by accident or by design, it's timely that the thread was resurrected. MPEG4 hasn't been in the news since forever, but in the past month, Gray Television has begun running an MPEG4 subchannel simulcasting one or more of their MPEG2 subchannels. Why? No one is certain yet...

    NextGen TV Expands in Phoenix

    Phoenix has had NextGen since 2018, but in July, expanded by adding KTVK and KTAZ to the NextGen lineup. KASW and KFPH-CD are NextGen hosts and the other stations have their NextGen signals on those two stations. KPHO and KPNX switched hosts, from KFPH-CD to KASW, and KTVK and KTAZ replaced...

    EW Scripps to launch OTA subchannels Doozy and DefyTV.

    Nothing from Scripps, other than a rename of Doozy to TrueReal in late March. Defy TV and TrueReal will likely launch on Ion stations, replacing the QVC and HSN subchannels, per RabbitEars, but there are uncertainties for the Ion stations that were spun off to Inyo Broadcasting, and for those...

    MeTV is launching MeTV+

    And if KMOH is airing it, no one in Phoenix can tell. KMOH serves Kingman AZ, about 175 miles from Phoenix (but in the Phoenix market). Weigel isn't even putting MeTV+ on KMOH's LPTV sister station in Phoenix, KEJR-LD.

    Looks like KQML may be going live soon

    That's just the Infomercial / Classic TV subchannel that HC2 has been putting on a lot of its stations. A lot of old public domain shows (Bonanza, Beverly Hillbillies) but very little variety. I saw the same back-to-back episodes of Bonanza three nights in a row. My local HC2 station shows an...

    Las Vegas area OTA availability

    Most locations in Vegas will have good reception. It's mostly LOS there and with almost all of the stations on Black Mtn., even the LPTV stations should be pretty easy to receive. They should even have a NextGen station by Memorial Day if all goes according to plan. If you look up the...

    Help with selecting an Antenna

    One caveat is that WHNE-LD, virtual channel 14, is moving from RF channel 20 to RF channel 3, so if you're interested in any of its 12 subchannels, you'll eventually need an antenna capable of receiving low-VHF signals, or make a low-VHF antenna yourself and join it into your antenna feed using...

    Dabl

    Dabl must have signed a contract with Ventana Television (owners of HSN). In Tucson AZ, Dabl debuted on the NBC affiliate in September, but now the low-power Ventana Television station, formerly airing only HSN, has added Dabl. It's an odd lineup; HSN on 21.1, QVC on 21.2, HSN2 on 21.3, QVC2...
