Birthday Day Post

UPDATE 2PM: Oops. We goofed.

The Bengals played against the Saints last week. This week, it's the New England Patriots! Our bad...this is what a 5 am post gets ya sometimes!

This will pretty much clear our plate for today. Again: it's Your Tri-State Media Watcher's 24th birthday today - so we're trying to stay away from anything that's work-related. But...these two items need to be talked about:

WCPO Antenna Boost: The FCC approved the WCPO-TV request for a boost of their power to their digital antenna.

However, this article also informs viewers still having issues to call the station and leave a message.

Still yet uncertain is the solution to WKRC's issues with THEIR VHF signal. There's yet to be a request to up their power or change allocations made, or at least posted to the FCC database as of this writing...

Again: This Blog Space takes a break today to celebrate yours truly's 24th. We're back Thursday, then gone for the weekend and back for good Monday!
