So people who have stationary dishes move to AMC3 before winter begins.
The Monkees will also be shown on Antenna TV:

Why would it be there? This is owned by Weigel. Antenna TV is owned by Tribune.
THIS TV arrived over the antenna on 11.2 in ST.Louis yesterday , VERY Happy to see it ! I'm almost 80 miles west , but it's coming in good on my homemade 4-bay coathanger . Great Programing with out paying cable fee's .
Because they probably won't run fiber to all their affiliates? Or maybe they will.....
This format seems to be a trend. I can already get MeTV (formerly a timeshared block on WFBT-CA 23) on WWME and WBME, RTV on WBAY, WLLA and WITI, and ThisTV on one or two stations, I forget which.
WXMI is local and WGN comes in often so I'll get AntennaTV on those - if I can't find it with the dish, that is.

In the past few weeks, our local Kingman AZ stations have been switching over to digital. Of the seven stations that have changed, we are getting three sub channels of their network based weather (and traffic) channels, that doesn't do us much good, Phoenix doesn't seem to realize their weather doesn't effect us much, we're 300 miles north of them. But two of the channels are giving us THIS and RTV (west). WHOO-HOO !!!
I don't think we have any Tribune Stations in the Phoenix Market, but our CW has no sub-channels, I am hoping they might pick up some of the newer programming being offered, IS THERE a hope of this?
On another note, I finally swung the C-Band dish around to 91W and finally figured out HOW to load CW onto the CS5000, and adding that to the other channels offered there, it's getting more and more like watching cable TV for NO COST.
Thanks PopcornNMore for this info. And thank you Ice for your patience in helping others figure out how to get CW. I read and learned. It took a few tries and several hours, but we have it now.

Looks like it will be available to local OTA broadcasters in January...

I think we have the news of the year folks! A new digital broadcast station is coming soon from Tribune Broadcasting and will feature classic TV shows and movies! Tribune Broadcasting has announced the launch of Antenna TV, a classic television and general entertainment movie network to air as a digital multicast on Tribune's broadcast stations beginning January 3, 2011. Tribune markets include New York's WPIX, Los Angeles' KTLA and Chicago's local WGN. The Chicago affiliate for Antenna TV will be WGN-DT 9.2. Antenna TV will also be offered for national distribution to non-Tribune stations. Stay with us in the coming months for an official list of stations.
Antenna TV will offer a combination of movies and classic television shows including: Three's Company, All in the Family, Sanford and Son, Good Times, Too Close for Comfort, Benny Hill, Maude, The Partridge Family, The Nanny, and Married...with Children. And even more cool stuff like Three's Company's short-lived spin-offs The Ropers and Three's a Crowd will air within Three's Company itself! That sounds very cool and unique! More to come on this in the coming months. Black & white classic television series will air in the overnight and includes classics like Father Knows Best, Dennis the Menace, The Donna Reed Show, and on weekends The Three Stooges. As you may have noticed, the series are mostly from Sony Pictures Television and a few from Don Taffner's DLT Entertainment. More shows will be announced soon, so stay tuned.
A schedule isn't ready for release yet but there will be movies in the daytime and sitcoms starting at 5pm and going through the overnight hours. NO paid programming will be on this digital multicast at all, as it is 24/7 entertainment! There will be a lot of themed events, including holiday marathons. This is going to be a delight for sitcom and classic TV fans! Many of these series have not aired on local syndication in years, so this will be fun to watch in a new way on digital television! This station comes from the same people who run the cable network WGN America and the digital station THIS TV, so you bet Antenna TV will be good. Stay with us for further updates and we will be the first to let you know the launch schedule when ready! And special thanks as always to Sean Compton, president of programming for Tribune Broadcasting, for his help and information!

Is AntennaTV going to be FTA? I wonder what Google will charge for their service. Surely they aren't giving it away.
I take it it's gonna be a different AntennaTV than the network with foreing language (Polish?) at 103ºW and i think 121ºW =P.
If this new AntennaTV is property or at least run by Tribune, i guess we'll get it FTA in the same place we get the other Tribune channels: nowhere...

yea, that's what I thought
I keep looking for it on KTLA 5, Los Angeles, as suggested above.
But, I still can't see it airing on the same station as This TV. . .
