SOWNY » Technical Question: Signal Strength Vs. Signal Quality » October 24, 2022 1:41 pm |
Last night all the Buffalo stations were exceptionally strong and many from Rochester were coming in in North Mississauga.Without knowing where you are located I could only speculate.Perhaps its overload of the preamp or tuner causing the issue?This distorts the signal so quality shows 0.My Tablo/PVR used to the same thing until split signal before PVR reducing signal 4.5 db.

Quote ;=12px CIII Bancroft transmitter is slated to shutdown very soon, and the main Global feed will be multiplexed onto the CKWS signal in order to continue the Toronto/regional signal to the area.End quote.As if CKWS or CHEX signal very little can reach into Bancroft transmitter service area.

SOWNY » WBLK Toronto Reception » February 1, 2022 9:57 pm |
WBLK is likely using their back-up transmitter which is very directional towards southeast and is only 4.5KW.The main transmitter is 47KW omni.So backup sends nothing to northwest.
