[TriLUG] OT: DTV transition and new ATSC frequencies

[Andrew Rankin]

Mark -

When I initially scanned it was working just fine, however flipping
through the channels this morning it appears that I now get no
signal...

This is posted on their web page:

"Some viewers of UNC-TV's over-the-air digital signal in the Chapel
Hill area -- the signal from WUNC Channel 25 -- are experiencing
reception problems following the federally-mandated shutoff of all
analog television signals.

We believe the interference is caused by the low-power signal from
another broadcasting station in Durham.  UNC-TV is actively working on
technical modifications that we hope will resolve or improve the
situation soon.

Thank you for your patience as we address this problem."
