For the past several minutes, WNAC has aired a loop of four promos: Judge Judy, Wheel of Fortune, Better, and The Doctors. I cannot receive WPRI. Are they having similar issues?

WNAC Prov., RI Technical Problems?
- Thread starter bostonmediaguy
- Start date
At 2:41pm, the loop was interrupted by some commercial without audio, a station ID slide (the only 16x9 HD I have ever seen), and then back to the loop.
"Inside Edition" just began (in progress).

Also, what did the 16:9 ID slide look like?
Similar to their news graphics: large logo, station id and "A LIN Television Station" on the bottom. The background was of satellite dishes.

Oh Noooo. Not the satellite dishes again. That station loves it's satellite dishes. Do they still have 15 of them on the property? ;D

Looking at this satellite picture, yes.
Also, whenever they have breaking news, but no picture for it on their website, they put up a picture of the dishes.

Oh Good. You're here! Can you give a brief explanation of what each dish is for. I know you need one for Fox programing and one for CBS programming. Ok those two are understandable. Probably have one directed towards CNN for News and another one to beam out stuff from WPRI too. OK.... that brings us up to four. I'm pretty much lost after that.

Click on Birds Eye View on this link. Much clearer picture than Google. I count 11 Dishes. There are 4 on the roof. One is really small though. Also... have you noticed what a real odd shape that building is? They should get rid of the front parking lot and construct the rest of the building. I don't get the pie half. That place could have been twice as big with twice as much studio space if they built it a normal shape.

OK 9 are used by us.
1 is dead.
1 is used by Echostar (Dish) for QC return. (The small Roof mount KU)
----
4 are steerable, multi use.
2 CBS (Main + Backup)
1 is FOX
1 is Pathfire (news delivery service/CNN)
I believe the last one is Pathfire but I am unsure exactly.
However CBS/FOX comes out of Master Control in Chicopee, so the CBS/FOX dishes are simply local backups.
