CBS to Launch Retro Digital Channel Focused on Pop Culture, History

[primestar31]

It's on 101w right now replacing TouchVision. See the usual forum for the specs. FatAir posted it, and I'm watching it now. Use WDJT-DT4 on TitanTV, as it's the guide and programming showing now.

I haven't gotten a chance to check but I thought I heard that it's live on WWJ CBS 62 Detroit.

KOVR 13.2 Sacramento has "Decades" up and running and it looks good. KPIX 5.2 San Francisco is labeled as "Decades" in the PSIP info, but they haven't added the feed yet. We're still seeing black screen.

 

[boba]

Last night on NCIS I noticed digital break up on 11-1 I don't know if it was because of 11-2 "Decades" but strongly suspect it

 

[larrykenney]

KPIX 5.2 San Francisco started airing "Decades" today, 2/9.

 

[Mr Tony]

still nothing in Minneapolis (had someone scan today for WCCO 4-2 and nothing)

 

[Mr Tony]

Decades launched in Detroit today on WWJ 62-2
