Cloyne (which is more east than north) seems like a strange place for a digital OTA transmitter for TVO when larger communities like Sudbury and Kingston no longer have any TVO transmitters, but there was a specific reason why TVO kept Cloyne as I recall.

When the first phase of the digital transition occurred in 2011, the federal government required broadcasters to vacate UHF Channels 52-69, and they also required all transmitters in markets of a certain size to transition to digital. They also required the transition in cities that had two or more originating television stations. There was no initial requirement to vacate analog television outside of those areas, which is why transmitters like Global Bancroft and CJOH Deseronto stayed for a few years after 2011.

Which leads back to Cloyne, where the analog transmitter for TVO was in the Channel 52-69 range - I’m not sure which channel specifically but I want to say 55, but in any event that transmitter was not allowed to operate past August 31, 2011. TVO chose to transition that transmitter to digital instead of shutting it down. They initially kept their entire OTA network operating, using digital transmitters in the mandatory transition markets and in Cloyne, while keeping analog everywhere else. But not for long.

If I recall correctly TVO opted to shut down all of its analog TV transmitters less than a year later, but they kept all the digital transmitters they had just invested in.

Broadcast Dialogue had a very, very brief mention of him in one of their recaps. I used that to look for more info. It does seem an odd quest to try and locate people who are watching TVOntario OTA, but stranger things have happened.

Ironically, tomorrow, Friday, is the day TVO workers could walk off the job, so I'm not sure if anyone will be watching them then, analog, digital or otherwise, although I expect management will find a way to keep it going if it comes to that.  

I believe this is his site, although there's not that much there.
