E

eskipper411

After many months, Channel 34 here in Dallas is back on the air. I will try to get pics up and show them to you and they maybe static but at least its something right?Eskip last night
 
How can there be both 33 and 34 in the same market?
Maybe digital channels, but analog? I always thought
the analog gaps were: 4 and 5, 6 and 7, 13 and 14.
 
So, is this a channel thats based in someone elses closet, like the old KDNT 2 was?

Low-powered stations are generally so much weaker than full-powered stations that they can co-exist alright. Generally, the full-powered station stomps on the LP pretty bad, but they're allowed to do so by the FCC. The LP knows what it's getting into when it asks for that channel.

What's more, as ch 34 is a secondary service, if their signal causes any interference to ch 33, a primary service, ch 33 can demand that ch 34 modify their signal or shut down altogether until the interference is resolved.

Ch 34 was the old LAT TV service, wasn't it? Is the new programming English or Spanish?
 
Its probably one 24-hour ad for PAACO or an ALMAVision affiliate...
