I received no signal OTA for that channel last night. They must have been down altogether.

According to the WTVH website:

We are experiencing technical issues with our over-the-air digital signal. This does not effect all other CBS 5 WTVH signals including channel positions 5 and 855 on Time Warner Cable.

Hasn't been on since Sunday. Missed a bunch of recordings.

D* seems to be giving us the network feed for non-local content, at least (thank you!). Anybody know if that's something they need to get permission from the lo-cal station (or FCC) to do? Or can they just do it on their own.
