97W is carrying both the new QVC (Old Q Test slate) and the old color bars (under the channel label Cool TV). From the Facebook page, it seems most markets where it was OTA, they were getting the Q Test slate, which is now QVC.

is there an echo in here?

Some folks are reporting that on their OTA station that carried Thecool (and now said qtest) is now QVC?

It's still on OTA channel 60 in Denver as of this morning.

Whoops!

I noted the Cool TV's colorbar, with a whining test tone sound is still showing Closed Captioning music video track on G-19 bird.

I think The Cool TV just deleted their Facebook page. Can anyone confirm this?

JR Smith Please bring your channel back to FTA satellite.

Still there.

Still on the air here, getting from WCTX 59-02 and WWLP 22-02 (Both showing the same thing.)

Thanks...for some reason, I couldn't find them in the search engine. I guess I was separating the words.

 

[Mr Tony]

and like usual they dont respond.....

It took them 5 days to respond when Sinclair took them off the air and they only responded with "we'll be back soon"

 

[Mr Tony]

someone posted this on the 4th on their spacebook page in regards to the satellite feed

i sent them an email and they said it's "no longer available." not sure what that means, except that I don't think we're getting it back.

They are probably doing a fiber back haul to their affiliates. Sounds like they are a low budget provider.

 

[FaT Air]

If that's the case -

Well, it was good while it lasted, it's too bad it only lasted for a short time. Will be missed.

 

[Mr Tony]

Right now they only have 11 affiliates and 6 are owned by LIN

When they went on 97W they (Cooltv) made it sound like they'd e up there for a long time....hmmm guess the check bounced

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

I get two if the 11 then.


Station suck now its a half hour of videos and then a half hour infomercial.

The 80s at 8 sucks since they only show 5 videos now.

[Mr Tony]

yeah so does Indy if you can pick up the Lafayette station

They use to be on roku too but that doesnt work either.
I find it interesting when all the companies were dropping them (assuming because of money) I posted on their spacebook site and got lynched by other people about it. The company all they said was "oh we'll be back soon".......and nothing really came of it

The Tube had next to no commercials (only near the end), but then their business model apparently did not work to well. The dollar does dictate, unfortunately.
