Not sure if anyone is aware that Antigo has a TV station.  It is STRICTLY a DTV station.  They opt not to bother signing on as analog since its on the way out.  Instead they already signed on the air at 46-1.  I have no idea if they are a network station, or independent.  I understand that it is a low power TV station. The TV News editor for the "UHF-VHF Digest" published by the World TV FM DX Association commented "I would not be surprised if there are no DTV receivers within WTPX's coverage area."  

I personally think that if there are subdivisions growing in or near Antigo, especially new houses...I'm sure some of those people will own a HDTV set.
