Antenna TV gone in Cincinnati (And Returns Jan 1)

Here in Nashville, AntennaTV will be coming to Sinclair's WZTV on new subchannel 17.3. It's currently on a low power station hardly anyone can get, so glad it's moving to WZTV. We get GetTV on Sinclair's WUXP 30.2. As far I know, it will remain there, although I'd love to see it replaced by Movies!, although that's unlikely given that Sinclair doesn't carry it anywhere.

I normally would say that I dont see GetTV leaving the markets where Sinclair owns 2 stations. But in Baltimore where they own/run/LMA/JSA/whatever THREE stations....they ARE replacing GetTV with AnetnnaTV. That might have to do with them already carrying ThisTV which is a partially owned Tribune station too.
 
Hey Ice,I actually get three markets here as well.I get Indianapolis and Dayton stations on DirecTV and Dayton and Cincinnati stations over the air.Its wonderful for NFL football on Sundays.This area is technically in the Dayton and Indianapolis DMA's and I'm close enough to Cincinnati to pick up WSTR,WCPO and WLWT TV...

We don't know yet if they're going to bump GetTV to WUTB's inferior signal. They could do that; WUTB has the room.

I agree its great for Cincinnati and the other cities to get Antenna TV on full power channels. However, I wonder if Sinclair is going to run their sports feed over the Antenna TV schedule like they do currently with GET TV. I am sure plenty of people enjoy the college sports but I am not sure people who like Antenna TV's programming will appreciate the sports instead of classic shows.

good point. Here in Minneapolis it use to be on GetTV (WUCW-DT2) but the weekend of Halloween they moved it to Grit (DT3) which made it sound like Comet was coming..but alas it didnt. But I have seen AntennaTV pre-empted for sports. Last weekend the Wisconsin hockey game was shown on CometTV in a couple of their markets
 
Launched today on Star 64 and also in Dayton

someone in Cincy area said that GetTV moved to -4 (Comet is on -3)

just learned that in my area Cincinnati, antenna tv went into the .2 subchannel that was gettv which was moved to a new .4 subchannel
 
I can confirm the following
64.1 - WSTR - MY TV
64.2 - Antenna TV
64.3 Comet
64.4 GetTV, and right now the Sinclair Sports channel showing Miami University Hockey.

22.1 WKEF NBC
22.2 GetTV
22.3 Antenna TV but still labeled as GRIT in the channel data
22.4 Grit TV, labeled Grit (not GRIT) in the channel data

Looks like time to rescan my channels in both tv's lol. I didn't think Antenna Tv was back on in Cincinnati until January. Thanks Ice for the info and TNG Tony too
most TV's all you have to do is go to the channel and it should update within a few seconds
So go to 64-1 and it **should** update the listings
 
I assume you mean ABC?

Must be nice to be able to grab more than one market. Thats the issue with a giant market (area wise). No options for a neighboring market.

Yup. I was stuck in the past. Updated the original post.

I'm more jealous of those who live just to the northeast of here. They can also get Columbus channels.:)
 
The only time I could get a neighboring market is when I had my house (SW burbs of Minneapolis) and could get KEYC Mankato (the only station in that market) with my monster VHF antenna. gave me an extra CBS & FOX :)
 
TNG Tony is probably real familiar with the area near me. I'm about 20 miles too far southwest to get Columbus reliably. In the analog days I had some of the Columbus stuff fairly reliably. Also WBDT 26.3 ION is on now too. The Vizio tv will add channels without a rescan. The Wallymart Element special does a complete scan....Last count 64 channels as of today
