Just a quick note to let you know that we plan on beginning digital over-the-air broadcasts on Thursday, May 31. AT&T Cable tells us they've fixed their infrastructure problems and are ready for us to begin low-powered broadcasts. We're set to begin sometime Thursday morning although I'm not sure exactly when. This is also contingent on everything working properly at the transmitter. (This stuff hasn't been fired up for almost two years.) It's doubtful that you will be able to receive our low powered signal as far out as you are, but stranger things have happened. Let me know if you are able to see us Thursday. If not, you can keep watching cable for now. Once we're up to full power you should definitely be able to watch us over the air. |
