Gary wrote emailed with a common question we’ve been getting here at 4 WOAI. He writes, “I stopped getting your digital signal after you turned off the analog signal. Did you turn down the power of your digital signal?”
We are currently on a temporary antenna that is side mounted on our tower. When we changed our DTV delivery channel on June 12th, we had to move over to this antenna at reduced power while our main antenna and transmission line is being replaced. This is expected to take 30 to 40 days to complete. Once completed, we will be back to full power and transmitting from the top of the tower (approx 2000 feet high). This should help the signal strength for all viewers.
