Tegna to launch adventure/exploration diginet

Its not too bad for an OTA channel and there is no other subchannel like this so its a bonus. Pity Discovery/A&E wouldn't buy a % interest in a subchannel like this. The OTA channel channel also called Quest in the UK which is operated by Discovery is a very good channel with repeats of Discovery shows like How It Made, Mighty Cruise Ships and Chasing Classic Cars, it also produce originals like Salvage Hunters. Maybe in a few years as OTA is a growing business in the US Discovery/A&E may buy a stake in a subchannel?
 
History also had Life After People. As I thought that not interested in Quest other than Storm Chasers which Discovery aired about decade ago like Life After People. As I said I believe that it will be WZZM .3 move Justice to .2 unless Quest will be a .4 as I say remove ACCUWeather Network just my opinion.
 
Quest's website shows the markets where it will be initially launched - http://www.questtv.com/find-quest.

Seems to be limited to stations owned and/or controlled by Tegna, so no charter affiliates in New York, LA, Chicago, Philly and Boston. Surprisingly, no DC affiliate either, considering that WUSA is a Tegna station.
 
Still doesn't have info where it's going to be what channel .whatever the number. Isn't it launching next week or the week after.
 
They are already running PROMO loops in Atlanta on 11.4. Looks like some History Channel type programs will be featured.
