Digital Channel

What is the digital channel. The article says it will flash cut, in otherwords turn off it's analog and turn on it's digital signal but Channel 52 is out of the digital tier which will be from Channels 2-51. --4.142.45.215 (talk) 05:18, 23 April 2008 (UTC)eric[reply]

What's the frequency, Kenneth? Looks to be channel 20 post-transition, but the FCC lookup on this station is a mess of proposals ranging from 15 watts DTV to five million watts analogue. No idea what they will end up using, may be best to keep some 9V batteries handy just in case they need the extra power? --99.245.244.176 (talk) 02:02, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This raises one more question: does WNYI have the means to convert to digital (which it legally must do, as it is licensed to be a full-power station) and complete the move to a new channel (which it legally must do, as 52 is out-of-core when this is over) now that its owner Equity Broadcasting is as of December 2008 in Chapter 11 bankruptcy? I could very easily see this signal going dark if the negative-Equity of financial red ink isn't sorted out soon. --66.102.80.212 (talk) 04:28, 28 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
