OOPS for WTMJ again

[Gregg Lengling]

No 4-1 tonight....someone must be asleep at the switch.  I wish 6 would at least ramp up their power...I get 20 to 25 on signal strength usually but every so often in the late afternoon their signal pops up to 50 and bingo I have picture and sound, solidly.....come on guys no more run around get the main tower fixed up and put the antenna where it belongs.

Gregg 4-1 was on Tuesday night, but even some of our people couldn't see it at first. Our manager of technical operations had to re-scan to get his set to work. We think the problem was atmospheric skip, probably from NTSC channel 28 in South Bend Indiana.

There was a lot of skip Tuesday night on the UHF band. I guess the receivers get confused by two stations on the same channel.

Oh no, what a fine mess. (apologies to Oliver Hardy). So here's the status of the digital, cutting edge revolution in Milwaukee. Tmj may fade on nites with atmospheric skip perhaps entertaining Muskegon and environs, WITI is only available to people with DTV's in the station parking lot, DJT is on all the time but at low power, PBS is multicasting Teletubbies at 10 p.m. for the toddler insommniacs, and WI$N needs to put a CB whip antenna on top of their tower. And finally channels 18 and 24 are still looking in the Radio Shack catalog for a transmitter. No use worrying about it, nothings gonna work out allright.
