I was wondering if anyone had any updates on WLGA-DT. I'm in Talbot County and I can recieve there analog signal but my signal meter shows nothing on digital. Is that b/c I have an inside antenna and my distance from the tower or is it that they are still upgrading?  |

Yes, they run their digital at very low power now out of opelika. Their analog comes out of cusseta off one of the big towers at a much higher power.
I'm not sure when they plan to upgrade digital. They never have given a firm date.

They never have given a firm date. I suspect in February. WLGA-DT is currently broadcasting on DT 31... but after the Digital Transition in February, WLGA-DT will be broadcasting on DT 47... the same channel that WTVM-DT currently broadcasts from. By waiting to move until February, they can move directly to DT 47 instead of having to set things up temporarily on DT 31 in the meantime... which will no doubt save them some SERIOUS money. Hopefully they will choose to upgrade to HD at the same time!  ~Alan |
