Chicago

[Bongu]

If you would have looked about 45 miles to the northwest suburbs, there are a few of us FTA people out here that dont have to deal with the OTARD rules and HOAs. Im a little too far to get all those OTA stations. The last time I tried it was about 20 that I could actually receive.

I thought that was Louisiana!

But not to get too far off-topic, WGN OTA would be a big plus. Problem is, if i'd ever move to a larger city than New Orleans, chances are it would be NYC. I've spent lots of time there, gotten to know how to get around on the subway system, and love the retail photo-video and electronics stores!

Superstation WGN Chicago

A trip to Chicago wouldn't be complete without seeing superstation WGN.

Do they still have a Bradley Place address? I went there as a child -- was a player in a game on Bozo's Circus. My, what a tiny studio it was. Had a live band, though. And Ringmaster Ned...

Nice facility! We have one of Tribune's affiliate stations, WGNO, here in New Orleans ...

Yes, same address.

Nice dishes! I bet they can beam WGN to Saturn with those.

 

[Mr Tony]

yeah too bad the signal is scrambled though

 

[toucan-man]

Too bad is right, would be so great if WGN was FTA. Has it ever turned up in the clear?

 

[Mr Tony]

not anytime I remember

Maybe back in the analog days it might have

You're not missing much anymore. I have it on my cable lineup, never watch it since they went "WGN America" and took most of the Chicago spots, promos and other Chicago flavor away. Even the news seems distant. Same ole tanning mats and exercise ads all day. ME Tv kills their program lineup and IS FTA!
