Erie TV news

By Tom Lavery

Erie-Meadville:

Late last week, WICU DT 12 finally flipped to HD on 12-1. The station had been only offering NBC HD programming to both Time Warner and Armstrong cable systems but now its available over the air as well as on Dish Network. Meanwhile, WQLN is now airing spots aimed at Rogers cable customers in London, Ontario. Rogers is planning on replacing WQLN with another channel. However, WQLN is asking viewers there to inform Rogers that the station should remain on the cable outlet. Otherwise, viewers may have to resort to over the air reception for the PBS outlet at DT 50 (54-1).

The situation for WQLN is worse than indicated: WQLN has said it may shut down local operations if it loses its cable presence in London.

Rogers plans to replace WQLN with WTVS from Detroit, imported via satellite (not fiber as press reports indicated).

The same thing is happening in Ottawa where Rogers may drop WPBS out of northern New York. Canadian viewers are a sizable portion of WPBS’ membership.
