too bad equity (rtn) will be bankrupt near the end of 2008

 

[Mr Tony]

nah. They "sold" to the ceo of the company who has a different company (basically a shell company)

Their signal in Denver I used to get OTA has been MIA the last couple of months. I just read Equity filed with the FCC to go dark on that analog channel because of the financial costs to fix their transmitter.

 

[Mr Tony]

I remember once Gary (Gas) asked the board if anyone near Denver had a FTA box that they could use for a day or so to get KDEV-LP back up

There are 2 in Georgia that aren't up yet. Seems like it's been a year since they said they were coming? One was in Columbus @ WRBL and the other was in Augusta @ WJBF, I haven't seen them yet....
Columbus would Booom...... for me.
Augusta would be occasional....
I hope both are on that list, I can always use more RTN....!

This is good news -I get the Tallahassee stations OTA here too! :up I also get Gainesville OTA, but I think the station listed is low power.

it would be sweet if galaxy 18 carried all the major networks. i believe g18 + OTA is a great replacement for pay service. however, a lot of people cannot receive OTA channels and that is where it would be great if g18 had all the major networks.

it's great considering you can get a receiver w/ an ATSC tuner.

at one time they did. The nets that are on G16 C-Band use to be on G10 KU a while ago (couple years ago approx)

if only the wife would let me put up a c-band dish.

Mine won't either. But that's why I'm following the mini bud threads.
