WDIV reported this morning that Bally Sports sign a one year contract to keep the Pistons and Red Wings on their channel. It was reported that the agreement was made based on Comcast carrying this channel Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Scripps is looking at trying to make WMYD into a sports station. With the removal of the Pistons from Bally Sports I suspect Scripps is trying to pick that up for WMYD. They already carry Oakland. LTU and a few other colleges in the area for football and Basketball. Sent from my iPhone using...

I would be surprised if Detroit gets a affiliate since it’s been on 3 stations with a year Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No box required Keyfax was a feed that WFLD received a data stream and sent the information out on a reader board over the air. A lot of stations did this because it was easier to keep the signal up all night as to pay an Engineer to shut the signal down. It was not available 24/7 in the market...

Not sure about that. Chicago had three over the air subscription TV channels: 1 ON-TV which was carried on WSNS ch 44 which was owned by Video 44 at that time. 2 Spectrum which was carried on WFBN ch 68 owner by Focus 3 Sports Vision which was carried on WPWR ch 60 Now I know in the late 60’s...

Honestly being in that area since 1985 I do not remember it being on the air. Though it was ID on Fox 33 back then. Today the main channels you get with 30 feet tower is ch 11, ch 6 and ch 4 when conditions are good. Remember ch 45 analog was on the air a while before 9/10 bought it out. Then...

Looking at their streaming services now I see both TC and Alpena channels on Roku. Not sure where you’re getting your info from. I have a place in this market Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
