RTN/Retro Television Network

[carolinaradio]

Just came across this a few days ago...apparently there's a fairly new network around called "RTN", short for Retro Television Network. I believe it's mostly for broadcast TV stations, but apparently it's available for cable too. Lots of great shows that most of the local and national channels have abandoned!

yes they are mostly owned by equity broadcasting. you can get them free. If you own an FTA dish or live in one of the citys that has it. mostly made up of low powered and/or old PAX stations

I got to see them on a trip to St. Louis last Summer and really liked it. I wish that some stations in West TN would get it.

KIRO-DT is an affiliate with RTN. Check with them.

Our Fox affiliate in Raleigh-Durham has RTN as a digital subchannel.

www.rtnraleigh.com leads to their RTN page on the www.myfox50.com website. There's a schedule there.

Unfortunately it looks like RTN carries infomercials from 1 AM to 10 AM. That's their biggest shortcoming. There used to be a link to a live feed for the RTN station in Buffalo, NY, but it no longer works.

They recently became available for free on the digital sub-carrier for WPXI-TV
in Pittsburgh. They are worth yanking the coax from my dish for.
