Not sure where you are getting WOAI airing Antenna TV from...

 

No station here airs it.

Back to KCWI, whether the Pappas' suit goes in their favor or doesn't, what happens to KDMI?

KCWI → WOI (RF 23, VC 5) 5.1 ABC (720p HD), 5.2 CW (720p HD), 5.3 ThisTV (480i SD)

KDMI → KFPX (RF 19, VC 19) 19.1 ION (720p HD), 19.2 qubo (480i SD), 19.3 ION Life (480i SD), 19.4 ShopTV (480i SD), 19.5 QVC (480i SD), 19.6 HSN (480i SD)

WOI → ???? (RF 5, VC 23) (spun off) 23.1 ????

KFPX → ???? (RF 39, VC 39) (sold by ION) 39.1 ????

Back to KCWI, whether the Pappas' suit goes in their favor or doesn't, what happens to KDMI? Do they keep it in the interim and wait to sell the spectrum in the incentive auction, or do they sell it to one of the other three existing network affiliate owners in town (Tribune, Hearst or Sinclair)?

 

Given it's a This TV affiliate already, I could see Tribune as a buyer, create a duopoly with WHO-DT, shove This TV to a subchannel and add syndicated shows to KDMI's main channel.

Here’s how I would do a subchannel shuffle in Corpus Christi:

KIII: 3.1 ABC (720p HD), 3.2 FOX (720p HD – move from KUQI), 3.3 MeTV (480i SD)

KRIS: 6.1 NBC (1080i HD), 6.2 Telemundo (720p HD – move from KZTV2), 6.3 Cozi TV (480i SD – move from KIII4)

KZTV: 10.1 CBS (1080i HD), 10.2 CW Plus (720p HD – move from KRIS2), 10.3 KDF (480i SD)

KUQI: 38.1 MundoFOX (720p HD – move from KIII3), 38.2 Retro TV (480i SD)

IIRC correctly KIII has four subchannels already. ABC, Me-TV, MundoFox and Cozi.

We missed an approval of a station sale, of KUQI Corpus Christi. The debtor-in-possession High Maintenance Broadcasting has sold to Corpus 18, LLC. The sale is related to the debts, and Corpus 18 is comprised of the noteholders involved with High Maintenance and a related company, GH Broadcasting, which owned two low-power television stations. One carries MNTV and the other probably MundoFox.

 

You may recall that KUQI was the subject of a failed sale in 2012 under which it would have been combined with KIII in a shared services agreement. You may not know that their website, kuqitv.com, is, uh, one of the greatest websites in television history.

 

The most important stakeholders of Corpus 18 are Robert Behar (HERO Broadcasting; KBEH, KMOH-KEJR) and Prime Time Partners, which owns a series of MundoFox stations.

Take a tweet: "Over the air customers in Great Falls can now view KBGF in HD on channel 19. Please re-scan your HD TV sets." That was on October 27.

 

It is 15 kW and shows up in the FCC query as a NEW station on channel 19 with facility ID 198180.

http://www.rabbitears.info/market.php?request=station_search&callsign=198180#station

Both sites have two records, one a pending application, the other saying it's operating under "Special Temporary Authority". What's that mean, and which one's right?

Also, KBGF HD hasn't been picked up yet by Charter Cable. It would usually be in the 500 range.

http://www.zap2it.com/rmp/tvgrid/tvgridprint?lineupid=USA-MT68818-X&tz=US/Mountain&time=0

I highly doubt it. KBGF was only available in analog until last week. Until a couple of weeks ago, their weather graphics consisted of frozen radar screen captures.

Well' date=' we heard the news yesterday that Nexstar is buying Phoenix's KASW, which I didn't see this coming from a mile away. But this afternoon, Mike Malone from the B&C states his sources said that Nexstar might be getting Pappas' Des Moines CW station KCWI next. Perry Sook didn't confirm the news but the article states that he "said he hoped to do so "Very soon."

 

KDBC relaunched overnight, showing off these color bars (from my Mexican source):

 

 

Bad link - no image

That would be a massive downgrade for WOIO and CBS.

 

Far more likely that Gannett, Scripps or Tribune will buy WBNX's intellectual property as a whole, run it in 720p on 3.2, 5.2 or 8.2, and Angely simply cashes out on 55.1.

Fixed.

Think we should create a new thread on WBNX and move some posts over there?

[WBNX] is enough of an asset for Angely to sell off if this scandal gets worse.

In this case, The CW would move to WUAB, while MNT gets bumped to overnight.

Sinclair To Carry New Grit Multicast Network

Sinclair Broadcasting, the nation’s largest station owner, said it will carry Grit, the new digital multicast network aimed at men, in 47 markets.

http://www.broadcastingcable.com/news/currency/sinclair-carry-new-grit-multicast-network/134706

And there's WSET. It covers Lynchburg while WDBJ and WSLS focus on Roanoke.

Speaking of Nexstar' date=' I have no idea how we missed this. MyNetworkTV programming in Springfield, MO, which was originally a secondary affiliation on KRBK, has moved to KOZL. In addition, KRBK is now "Fox 5".

Mediacom Springfield - Channel 10 (5 is KSPR-DT2 CW)

Charter Osage Beach - Channel 4 (5 is religious indie KNLJ Columbia)

Suddenlink Branson - Channel 9 (5 is Branson Visitor TV)

Cox Harrison AR - Channel 5

"FOX Ozarks" would be a better brand.

 

My apologies.....the last post was a pocket-post.

 

Pocket-post? What's that?
