Yeah, I've just tried to map any and all TV transmitters
in the region. Only the ones with labels are broadcasting
(or planning to broadcast) HDTV. I show that channel
as CHEX, and I can't find any HDTV plans for them.
Ever since I discovered this site, i've been trying to find out if there were going to be any Digital signals coming off the tower waaaay up here in Peterborough. I did find something on the FCC site. There are currently some "digital" applications for different stations off the tower. Can someone tell me what they mean? There are currently 6 "applications" that look like this one (different stations though) ... Here's an example:
