I believe all Media General stations that offered RTV has flipped to MeTV, at least in markets where a MeTV outlet doesn't exist elsewhere.

WJAR "Media General" flipped on 9/26.RTV has become too blah......
 
The Media General station here switched to Antenna TV.

Also the Raycom owned station dropped their Local Weather/News station for Bounce TV.

I wonder if other stations are having problems with Bounce's picture & audio. WWME-LD 23.2 from a couple of messageboards have mentioned that Bounce has audio & video problems, but MeTV on WWME-LD 23.1 & 23.3 (not aure what 23.3 will be yet) are fine. I hear it's also a problem on Weigel's other station, WBME 49.3 Racine/Milwaukee. If this is a problem on other stations with Bounce, they better get the problems fixed, or they'll be looked at as another RTV with technical problems. I was shocked that W23BZ Columbus, OH, picked up Bounce. The owners of that station had planned to launch Dot 2, but I can almost guarantee that they gave up trying to launch the network, & decided to pick up Bounce instead (on the main channel nevertheless).
 
I saw weak audio problems for Bounce in Atlanta.....as I was passing by. Without sitcoms
I'll be lucky to watch it once a month.

I flipped past Bounce (on WBME) a few times. Very low audio level, poor picture quality and lots of pixelation (definitely from their end, not the station's). Last night I flipped past a football game that looked to be of web video quality (very low fps rate and bad sound). Sorry to say, but so far, Bounce looks like cable access. It's a mess. No wonder why Dot 2 never made it to air.

According to RabbitEars.info, which I trust more (RTV still lists WGRZ as an affiliate, for crying out loud), I believe they have 95.
I don't believe any of the Gannett stations are affiliated with ANY of the diginets except Universal Sports (Which NBC has already announced will soon be going cable only) anyway

So I believe RTV is either not updating their website (Not likely since they no longer list WFLA !!) or are flat out cooking the list in order to look good

Cheers & 73 ;D
 
WGRZ was an affiliate of RTV until September 16, Pat.

It must've been the only Gannett station to have been affiliated with it then

The last time I checked the Raycom station down here, WLOX TV 13, still has their local weather station which was after Bounce TV launched.

32.1 main NBC 32.2 which was Weather/News is now Bounce TV and 32.3 is This TV.
How many sub channels does WLOX have?
