AntennaWeb says WJSP-DT goes online in July 2008. My question is this. Would I be better off buying a rotor for my antenna to pickup WJSP, or is it possible to connect another smaller antenna to my primary one and avoid a rotor?

you could give it a try. when i first started with DTV i had two antenna hooked up with a splitter and it worked ok. It'd be cheaper than a rotor no doubt. Especially if you have access to another antenna you can try for free.

BTW, for those of you close enough, WACS-DT (PBS 25 in Dawson) should be going live in the next couple of weeks! April 10th... last I heard! ~Alan

Have they rebuilt the tower for WACS? I don't really go out that way much so I really couldn't say, but someone was told April 10th by someone from GPTV for the go live date for WACS-DT, so I'm assuming they're at least CLOSE to getting it finished. ~Alan

My grandmother lives near where the tower was. When I was down there two months ago, there was no activity at all. I wonder if towers go up that fast or have they moved the location?

It's coming in for me. I was preparing to install a rotor as my CM 4221 is pointing towards Cusseta. However, WJSP is coming in at 80-85% anyway. Amazing.

I can't pick it up, I think it's because of my DIRECTV receiver. It will only pick up channels that are registered with whatever service they use to provide local channel info. The stupid receiver can't actually scan for channels they way my old HD TIVO could. Guess I have to wait before I can enjoy HD Public Broadcasting.

Yeah, has to wait until Tribune provides the guide info. It took a while for WGTV to show up in my guide in Atlanta - a week or 2 after it was live.

Anyone happen to know when WJSP will be back broadcasting in digital? It was coming in quite well for a few days, and now I have a good signal but no programming is coming across. I am just wondering if anyone has heard when they were going to be back on.
Thanks, Rick

I can use my Dish Network VIP 622 and get a 100% on the meter, my HDTV's tuner doesn't have a meter, but I can see it stop and read something on DT 23 during a scan. I therefore think WJSP DT has a burned out PSIP or something? I'm sure they are broadcasting, I wonder if they know there picture isn't getting out?

As of yesterday, I was still not getting JSP in digital. There official start date isn't until July, so I'm wondering if they are still working on things.
