TheCOOLTV Gone from 97W?

[Cham]

Getting a blank screen here on that TP (11836 V 20769). Kind of enjoyed that channel, more variety than some music stations and it also had video!

Have not checked but good channel.

[truckracer]

Test pattern. Bet it's gone

 

[Mr Tony]

it sounds like they might be having issues. Folks on thecool facebook page are saying they are missing it on OTA stations too

someone asked on 2/21 about the FTA status

I see this channel is on Galaxy 19 on the FTA Satellite. Will you be keeping this channel on there?

and thecool's response
Yes, we will stay! We def need to spread the word to get more viewers and stations to watch and learn about THECOOLTV. Thanks for the support!!!

 

[Mr Tony]

moved to main area since it is on Lyngsat and thelist

I'll also monitor it here. Interesting. Some of the facebook comments also mention the white slate "Q Test" that I saw on 97W on another transponder. I'm assuming those folks are getting it via cable or pay satellite. Maybe the station is preparing for a switch over.

Crap. This is the SECOND time I've lost CoolTv. First from an OTA channel & now the FTA one. The OTA one played more new alternative rock though. I didn't like the 97w version as much but I still hope it's not gone for good.

Didn't remember seeing it on Lynsat. Must have missed it..

The TP is good and strong so I doubt it is related to the storms moving through the uplink area. Wonder if they are changing uplink... Interesting to speculate but will miss them if they are gone.

its there

 

[truckracer]

I miss it...this channel played all the time in my house.

 

[turbosat]

Truckracer at least you got to see it! I never did make the effort to go scan it in and see what it had. That's better than my "Tube" experience though, I DID get to watch that one just enough to really like it, then it went Poof!

 

[mando209]

It would suck if they go.i wanted to check the channel out

 

[truckracer]

The cool tv had some good content IMO.

The Tube not as much.

cool tv gone forever?

have not found it yet

Truckracer,

My local station KASA-DT in Albuquerque's TV market has dropped Cool-TV which is bad new for all of us.

 

[truckracer]

I watched or at least had it playing all the time! This is crap lol

 

[Mr Tony]

can someone confirm what is on that channel now?
Some folks are reporting that on their OTA station that carried Thecool (and now said qtest) is now QVC?
