Uplink Center

[andrewj0781]

Is there a way to see where a channels uplink center is located? Altoona / Johnstown ABC station is off the air. Do all locals use the same one? This is the only channel I'm missing and of course it's during the Penn State Game.

Usually its a local or regional SAT farm / uplink where the feeds come in by various means; sometimes maybe an affiliate can uplink directly, but I wouldn't guess that's a lot.. It is very possible one channel being down but not any other locals. Just wondering; why/how would knowing help?

I figured it was weather related but couldn't understand why my other locals were working so I just wanted to see where the ABC one was. I know there is power outages in Maryland So I didn't know If I signal went from PA to MD before being Uplinked. It's fixed now so It's all good now.
