Channel Changes Coming February 1

At long last, our conversion of all
analog cable channels to digital transmission is nearly complete. At the first
of January we converted the remaining analog channels and we continue to help
folks adapt to the change and we continue the process of delivering and
installing the DTA boxes necessary to keep older analog televisions working.
As February 1 comes around, we have
another small change that will impact all cable customers. In our negotiation
process with WNKY and WBKO, they have asserted their rights to be the only
source for ABC, NBC, and CBS programming in Barren County. Our agreement with
WNKY also stipulates that their CBS programming will be viewed on channels 10
and 515, and that their NBC programming be on our channels 7 and 514.
In order to comply with their wishes,
our WTVF programming will move to channels 23 and HD 558 on February 1. Our
WSMV programming will move to channels 16 and HD 559 on the same date. Network
programming on WTVF, WSMV, and WHAS will be switched such that it all comes
from the Bowling Green stations mentioned above.
This change will not require you to
reprogram your televisions again. The only hassle will be finding your favorite
local newscasts from WTVF and WSMV. You will have to learn to find them on the
channels listed above. We are sorry for this inconvenience, but the
broadcasters have a very strong hand in these matters and we are complying in
the hope of saving our customers from even higher licensing fees in the future.
