The wife and I took a drive to the summit of Mt. San Bruno yesterday. It was actually quite easy, compared to the trip to the summit of Mt. Diablo we made a...
You are correct about the towers. The Bruno site like many in this area is owned by American Tower Corporation and the tower registration numbers are issued...
How about a little history? To follow up on Nick's and Richard's comments, the building and tower used by KNTV, analog and digital, at the end of Radio Road...
I've spent many ugly nights on Mt. San Bruno. (Some nice ones, too...) My theory is that the only reason the Bay Area has such nice weather is that Mt. San...
... That would make some sense. Channel 14's frequency is 60% or so of channel 60s. The right to change to reduce frequency by such a percentage would be a...
Hi folks, I'm seeing either no signal or very glitchy images on the high-def channels through Comcast in Santa Clara today. Anybody else? What's up? --George...
... At the time, UHF receivers were better at the lower end of the band, as well. KCSM had no significant budgets for equipment at that time, so both stations...
It's not HD, and it's not digital, but for those of you, like me, interested in anything you can watch on your TV from over the air, there is an Amateur...
Comcast last week said it would impose a monthly Internet traffic threshold of 250GB on its broadband subscribers beginning Oct. 1. In making the announcement,...
Hi, At 12:55 AM 9/4/2008 I noted that KMTP-DT 32.1 Has The "ARTS" programming. What is interesting is that KMTP Analog 32 is not coming in. ( I record it at...

KNTV did remodel the entire building. We stripped it to nothing but bare walls. An entirely new electrical system was installed. The walls were repaired,...

Having gotten back to the set for another look, I am disappointed in the really poor quality/resolution of what is currently being transmitted. It looks like a...
Richard, can you let us in on what is going to be on the 11.3 channel? My second discovery this morning was that NBC 11 now has started another subchannel...
By "ARTS" do you mean the "Classical Arts Showcase", CAS? CAS is a free TV feed offered by a foundation to anyone who will broadcast it without commercials. ...
Are any of the Networks putting their eastern feeds on their secondary channels??? If not, why not? We have kids and like to go to bed at a reasonable hour. ...
Yes, there will be an additional channel coming. It is 24/7(?) SD sports programming called Universal Sports. There will be a reduction in the WX+ allowed...

I haven't seen any east coast feeds on any of the stations' sub- channels here in the Bay Area and Sacramento. For a while KKPX was broadcasting the east...
KOVR is more than delaying it to 7pm as the west coast feeds always have different national spot content. Even if it is the same advertiser they use different...
