DTV question

Post by fmksey »

When the analog transmitters went down on friday in Wichita Falls/Lawton - no problem for those of us on the cable or telephone company. But there are --- lots or rural counties that have 80s vintage cable systems and lots of people who are still using antennas. The stations are KSWO 7 in Lawton, KFDX 3 and WAUZ 6 - both Wichita Falls. At some point will all staions drop the channel, 7-6-3 and be a new channels, at least for what they say on the air?? Not Newschannel 6? Something else interesting about KAUZ - they had an FM station that broadcast TV audio. I was told years ago that it was the only one left (grandfathered) - that went away when the analog signal ended on friday.

Actually when you were listening channel 6 on the fm band you were hearing the aural transmitter which is just below the fm broadcast band. I have no idea what the tv stations are going to do for DTV.
