LOL!!! Don't get me started! :)

The Cincinnati Spot also has 3 Pittsburgh channels on it. So that's "our" 6 channels (5, 9, 12, 19, 48 and 64) plus "their" 3 (WB, UPN and PBS) for a total of a full transponder. If they shove 25 in there now it will degrade our pq further.

:rant:
However....IT IS INEXCUSABLE THAT DISH NETWORK IS THE ONLY GD MULTI_CHANNEL CARRIER IN THIS CITY THAT DOESN'T HAVE THIS CHANNEL!!!! EVEN DIRECTV PICKED THIS CHANNEL UP 24/7. SMALL CABLE COMPANIES WITH VERY LIMITED BANDWIDTH PICKED THIS CHANNEL UP. YES IT'S A LOW POWER CHANNEL, BUT SO WHAT??? IT IS A REAL, VIABLE, 24 HOUR CHANNEL WITH REAL PROGRAMMING UNAVAILABLE IN THE SUPERSTATIONS PACKAGE. IT IS MORE THAN JUST A UPN CHANNEL! DISH NOT CARRYING THIS CHANNEL IS INSANE

See ya

I was just thinking TP2 on our beam has 11 stations, TP8 has 9, and TP10 has 7. I can see the logic of not adding WBOC to TP8 as Ch.16 from Pittsburgh will probably be added there, but there is plenty of room on TP10 to add it.

I think you mean WBQC, not WBOC. www.wbqc.com

WBOC is a Salisbury, MD CBS station ("Delmarva's NewsLeader") www.wboc.com. I'd like to see Glendive's or Zanesville's Newsleader station.
