Not sure how many members of the forum are in Southwestern Virginia, particularly the Roanoke area. I received this email from WDBJ 7/CBS a few days ago. Looks like we're less than two weeks away.
Here's the note from Bob Lee at the station:
The transmitter and antenna are installed, but we can't bring up the digital microwave path and the encoder until we move into our new digs on April 20. We expect to power up WDBJ-DT sometime during the week of April 22.

It's unfortunate they can't flip the switch until after the Masters, but considering this will be the first digital station in the area to go live, it's very welcome.
