WMDV-44 in Danville is planning its first full-power test on Wednesday, June 9 beginning at/around 6:00pm.
Final tuning of the transmitter is expected to take place earlier in the day. Studios have been installed on North Piney Forest Road (across from the tank museum) in Danville, and the microwave relay link is operational.
For this test, subchannel 44.1 will be used. Color bars will be up on 44.2, 44.3 and 44.4, but no programming is expected to be presented on those channels for the test.
Regular programming of WMDV-44 should commence the weekend of June 19th, pending permanent power installation at the transmitter. Of course, any reports of reception will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Matt Smith
