WNDY-TV adds simulcast of WISH-TV main channel

[jegrant]

I'm happy to report that WISH TV 8.1 is now simulcast on sister WNDY 23.3. This restores coverage of the CW network to much of the area that previously received it from WTTK 29.1 prior to the affiliation change on 1/1/15. The 23.3 signal seems to be 16:9 but likely SD.

This also restores local news to the 23.x signal because when WISH changed to the CW, they pulled all newscasts off of WNDY except a same day replay of the "Indy Style" program which is extremely soft news/lifestyle features.

My HD tvs show 1080i and 16X9. The same as 23.1. This is a first for central Indiana, Two 1080i channels on one call sign.

Thanks for the confirmation, I actually do think it looks like a decent picture, but I don't have any HD equipment hooked up at the moment
