WHY THE HELL DOES PIX KEEP ADDING AND REMOVING CHANNELS? I loved LATV They had music videos English and Spanish why no one liked that channel is beyond me.

Every time we get a GREAT CHANNEL they remove it within a year. We could have had music videos and a damn movie channel. Cable seems to be able to keep all there channel except for us absolutely ridicules.

Based on what? You have the ratings?

tube tv went out of business. latv didnt reach an agreement with tribune to renew. did it occur to u that carriage agreements are 1 year. wpix is leasing these channels. there hasn't been any real successful networks that have launched on DT subchannels.

latv leases a channel on time warner which is the only place its available in nyc area.

There aren't any ratings for sub-channels, the viewership is way too low!

I wonder if we can e-mail Estrella and ask them directly if they will continue next year with WPIX. Then we would have an answer of sorts.


Does anyone have the Estrella network website link? Can not seem to find a direct link. Is it the Liberman website?

unlikely they will give u a straight answer. if they get dropped, wpix needs to give 30 day notice to cable companies that carry Estrella.

Is RTV up and running? I tried getting RTV here at work, but only get 42.1. Did a re-scan, same thing. Signal comes in good on 42.1, so I don't know whats up.
This is on my Hauppauge 850 tuner.

I did a re-scan last night and couldn't even get a hint of RTV.

Things don't seem to be going smooth for RTV on 42.3. On both the tuners of my Vizio TV and my DTVPal DVR it sometimes looses picture and goes into audio-only. This seems to be a new problem in addition to all picture being B&W only, and sound only coming from my surround speakers with their audio Dolby PLIIx mix.

It's a shame cause my girlfriend was / is looking forward to a few of their programs too, like Hitchcock Presents, Night Gallery and Chiller Theatre.

But do both of you get 42.1 fine?

It varies day to day. If I get one of the 42.1 fine they are all fine.

Yesterday they all came in fine, signal strength wise. Today is a different story, break-up city for me.

im trying to get wkob signal care to explain what antenna did you use? did you buy it or diy? how good is reception wise? txs

Tired of finding something i like only to have it removed the next year. Oh well


DID RTV MAKE IT TO THE NEW YORK CITY AREA BECAUSE IM NOT GETTING IT???

For me, I get 42.1 fine, but for some reason my tuner can't find 42.2, 42.3

None of my tuners can pick up a hint of 42.1 either. Where do they broadcast from? The ESB?

I believe Trump tower

kb21 the building is actually called trump world tower is on 48 st & 1st ave. dekek jeter's condo is there

lol wait unitl antennatv is here. just when youre getting to like their shows, they will dump the sub channel.

hey there big guy are you enjoying retro tv. lol

Yes I know. Trump has too many dam buildings named TRUMP!

Don't know if anyone else noticed, but last night I was watching the Jet game on WWOR-DT 9.1. ESPN is doing 5.1 surround for the first time ths year as was noted in another forum, and for some reason on My9 it was not passing through 5.1 surround. I was hearing the announcers in the front surrounds, even though my receiver said 5.1. However when I watched it on ESPN via Cablevision, it was true 5.1 .
Meanwhile I'm watching the Yankee game right now on My9, and they are doing true 5.1, I only hear the announcers in the center speaker. Go figure.

Yeah, it's great watching a black picture and hearing glitching audio going on 4 days now. Just another example of NY OTA at it's finest. Why doesn't the FCC have a quality control requirement that stations must correct problems within a specified period of time or get the heck off the air??

BTW, NJN 50-1 slashed their signal strength by about 20% as of this past Monday. Those NJ budget cuts are hitting them hard.

why doesn't njn sub retrotv, then everyone wins!!

Are you serious? NJN cut back power to save money?

I, too, hadn't heard about it.

Not surprised, a few years ago, Channel 50 cut its power by 50% to save money!

How does cutting signal by 50% save any money?

Electricity costs money and a lot of it!

Are you kidding me? I thought they got that monkey hooked up to a treadmill?


LOL


Thanks for reply

Of course this could be the reason for receptions problems

One of the network owned stations at the ESB has been known to use hamsters!
