For years I have tried to get KRWG-TV from New Mexico State University (see my avatar). I could get a usable signal back in the analog days but when they went digital they moved their tower which is behind a tall mountain in my line of sight. I do get an occasional stable signal on some mornings if I turn my antenna that way but otherwise gave up on it long ago.
I was very excited when I read on their web site that they now provide an OTA signal for El Paso. However, when I dug into the technical details on rabbit ears I expected trouble when I read that they are using the same rf 23 as the main signal. Also, I am over 18 miles from the 3.15 KW transmitter.
Sure enough, when I scanned for new channels the signal breaks up continually and has only occasional audio. I am getting a signal strength of 92 but signal quality of only 10. This is with a moderate GE attic/outdoor antenna with clear line of sight to KFOX's tower (that KRWG is using in El Paso). I also tried the 4 bay antenna I put up for my neighbor at a higher 20 feet with the same results.
I suspect the problem to be that I get just enough of the main channel 23 to interfere with the local signal. Ten years ago I would have been tempted to try a higher and more directional antenna but I am a bit past that stage at this point. I also feel the chances of success are rather slim.
I wonder if KRWG wanted to use the same rf 23 or were forced into the situation as there are almost no empty slots on UHF in this area. I almost wish they hade used high VHF.
Do any members know of any area where these multi-transmitter set ups work well? They claim it will be feasible with ATSC 3.0 but I am not holding my breath for that.
I thought this would be interesting for members who frequent this site. Below is my rabbit ears report.

You do get KENW from Eastern NM who argued with FCC a decade ago about them being moved to Lubbock market.
Almost statewide. The eastern counties and the one by El Paso are different DMA

Try the free internet that comes with your apartment, versus the paid one you usually use. Maybe that will show a different location that will work.I'm not sure why they're blocking the livestream though, my ZIP Code should qualify

Our expanded partnership with NBCUniversal: Redefining the modern entertainment subscription
YouTube Premium is expanding its partnership with NBCUniversal to give subscribers access to ad-supported Peacock Premium streaming.
blog.youtube
This is an intersesting development. I already have Peacock ad-free for $16.99 on YouTube. With this partnership, since I already have YouTube Premium, it looks like I will get ad-supported Peacock for free. Makes me wonder if my $139.99 yearly deal for YouTube Premium will increase...

According to the YouTube Premium page the cost is $159.99 right now. Did you get some kind of deal for $139.99 or did it go up after you subscribed for $139.99?
You know what - it went up...when I click on my account, it shows my $139.99 membership, but if I go to "top up", it changes to $159.99. Doing a Google search, it went up on April 10. So I must have done an early renewal before the price increase went into effect.

Dedrie Hall revealed at SDCC, recognizable for any Days of our lives fans. Will appear in a S4 episode.
She was on Days of Our Lives for years playing Marlena and she was possessed by the Devil for a long time on the show.
Soap Opera Legend, can't believe she's 78.
She's been on Days of our Lives for 50 years. Mom used to record it to VHS all week and watch it a day or two later. It went digital only and forced her to learn how to use streaming apps.
Yeah... Her levitating off the bed was a bridge too far for me as a kid lol.

I watched the three main soaps on ABC back in my 20s because I worked grave yards stocking and would watch them on my VCR in the afternoons when I got up after sleeping in the day. When I went to a dept. manager in the mornings, my buddy from the other department at Safeway and I would often go to eat at Mr. Ghatti's Pizza on our lunch break and they had a big box screen TV in the 80s we could watch the soap on which was All My Children at noon. "Tad the Cad" was our favorite soap guy. He was the shampoo guy at his birth mother's beauty shop and he seduced both mother Marion and her daughter Liza at the same time. Loved it when they both found out about the other.
Talk about "Love in the Afternoon" with Fireworks!
The best I could do was remember the name of the soap everyone was watching (All My Children). You could rip my finger nails out and I couldn't give you character names or plot info.I watched the three main soaps on ABC back in my 20s because I worked grave yards stocking and would watch them on my VCR in the afternoons when I got up after sleeping in the day.

What about Soap? Now that was comedy!
I remember one time waiting in the hospital waiting area and they had a soap on (no audio) and we were having fun adlib'ing the scenes.

Jimmy John's used to be one of my favorite chain sandwich shops. A lot of them have closed down so now I have to go out of my way to go there. Today I was in the area so I dropped in. What a disappointment. There was hardly anything in it. I guess Im done with them now. 
This is what I ordered.

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!
So let the game continue!
The last song was added by Bobby who posted...
One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters
CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!
Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game
Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.
Example:
Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow
Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio
Another example:
Ride the Lightning -- Metallica
Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne
Get it?
An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....
