This is the video where Tyler went into full "MacGuyver" mode...

"How to replace a satellite dish with a TV antenna" would be a better title for the video...

Breaking up with ATSC 1.0 will be hard to do when the day comes... Green Bay, Wisconsin still has yet to get a new broadcast affiliate for MeTV (and the other Weigel Broadcasting-owned stations) on the current ATSC 1.0 standard, as Weigel Broadcasting bought WFXS-TV 55's old tower/equipment...

Some electronics manufacturers, like LG, have decided not to put ATSC 3.0 tuners in their new flatscreen TVs. It may seem like a kamikaze move for their adoption ATSC 3.0, as it looks like they want the new standard to fail...or maybe they're waiting for the new standard to be fleshed out more...

I'm not saying anyone has to 'own' the content, or that the FCC had to get rid of DRM, but instead to allow everyone to watch TV, while the broadcasters use the DRM encryption wisely...

I just hope FCC chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel is fighting for "ATSC 3.0 neutrality" (a free and open next generation broadcast TV standard) as much as she is is fighting for "net neutrality" (a free and open internet), the stuff that people like former Verizon chairman/former Trump-era FCC...

I guess Weigel needs to apply to boost the effective radiated power to reach both markets between now and the January 2023 deadline from 17 kW to 800 kW or 1,000 kW (1,000 kW is the maximum)... Effective radiated power for each Green Bay area TV station compared (for 9/6/2022): 2 (WBAY-TV...

Green Bay's affiliation with WGBA-TV 26.2 ends on October 1, 2022. A transitional affiliate for MeTV has yet to be announced to take over until until Weigel Broadcasting launches their own station on channel 31 in Wittenberg, Wisconsin (in Shawano County), about halfway between Wausau and...

I heard a new Weigel Broadcasting station will go online in Green Bay, Wisconsin soon, according to RabbitEars's market list (we are READS Market 75 at RabbitEars, as well as Nielsen Media Market 67), on channel 31, right now it's callsign can only be identified by its ID, "776266," as they...

I hope another station in Green Bay, Wisconsin is willing to add MeTV once news of this gets out a little more. WGBA-TV 26.2 will drop MeTV for new network that has yet to be made. I hope my local Gray Telvision-owned ABC affiliate, WBAY-TV 2, decides to add MeTV to subchannel 2.7 in response...

What the CRTC in Canada does to deny Canadian free over-the-air TV outside their cities really grinds my gears. They would have to cope with having a lesser variety of channels, unless they live along the Canadian border and can pick up free American channels/subchannels from neighboring...

This will help improve efficiency on ATSC 1.0 broadcast TV. The more free specialty channels being multiplexed by our local TV stations without any programming hiccups, the better. I have two flatscreen TVs, a Sanyo from 2011 and a Hisense Roku smart TV from 2019. Not sure if the Sanyo has the...

They also have ATSC 1.0 USB dongles which are compatible with laptop and desktop computers. They are perfect for watching live TV at home on a desktop computer or on the go using a laptop computer. All you need to do is supply an antenna, which most basic rabbit ear models are inexpensive and...

I'll have to see what their true intentions are for this new format for myself...until then, I'm outta here!

I found a blog at Solid Signal that might shed some light on the subject: https://blog.solidsignal.com/news/atsc-3-0-stumbles-again/

I found NO PROOF to back that up: atsc 3.0 channel encryption - Google Search

If its money the stations want, they usually get it through ad revenue. Local TV stations across all 200+ media markets are a local business like anyone else. Local stations do have the protection of the FCC and the NAB. Right now, many of those local stations do get alternate forms of ad...

Thank you...

At least PrimeStar31 agrees with me...

Broadcast TV is free TV, not pay TV, the FCC will not allow it! You're forgetting that pay satellite TV, cable, fiber optic TV and streaming still exists to get people to pay extra for channels they can not get through traditional means. The expense of cable/satellite/fiber optic TV is the...

I highly doubt they'll make us pay for what we can get for free...OTA is supposed to be free...they operated this way since day one...

I have a Sangean radio and I use it mainly for local radio (with RDS) and for internet radio.

I guess it's just free streaming services vs. paid streaming services vs. free over-the-air antenna TV at this point, with cable TV and paid satellite TV subscriptions dropping like flies...

OTA, C-band/ku-band free-to-air satellite, pay satellite and streaming services are having a tug-of-war war over viewership, much like how there was a tug-of-war between OTA, C-band/ku-band free-to -air satellite, pay satellite and cable TV in the past... We are starting to see cable TV's share...

Makes sense. ViacomCBS already owns PlutoTV, so my comment on the latter is invalid...
