Sinclair, LIN, Belo, Local TV own the big five in the Hampton Roads market, and they’re noticeably absent from that list. Guess we’re going to stay in the 40% still without Me-TV (and ThisTV). Still, Antenna TV’s pretty darned nice. Kudos for Tribune on that great network.

I’d love to see Me-TV or RTV here in Indy. Antenna TV is pretty darned nice, but some more nostalgic variety would be nicer!

I’ve got Antenna TV (and THIS) at my local (between Denver and Colo. Springs), but would love to have more classic dramas rather than just sitcoms.

I love it, it’s like dueling classic tv networks. The MeTV Station has better programs but Antenna TV looks produced a little better if you take away all the paid infomercial garbage.

ME TV is also now on NTRV 12.2 in the Boise DMA over the air, or on Cable One Ch. 14. That station now has ME and MY on the same channel, how cute.
