If both shows Do have to move, I sure hope that they end up on a station Other than WSVN. I’m a big fan of both shows. I've seen no indication that WPLG is about to dump the Sony game shows. If it happens, WFOR would be likely to pick them up. WSVN is not cancelling Deco Drive for Wheel or J!.

DENDude 217 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 KUSA & KTVD are "Tinkering with there signals" therefore everyone in metro Denver who uses an over the air antenna is going to have to re-scan to receive NBC, WX Nation TV, MNTV, & MeTV. Engineers at KUSA/KTVD say this is due to a boost in power at the two stations to try and eliminate dead spots in the viewing area. As far as i know there the only 2 stations doing this on 12/7.

KOBI/KOTI has been using the "Interstate Sign" logo for decades, and their former sister station in Chico/Redding (KRCR) might have done so too at one time.
