Brad, I am an old NTSC xmtr engineer from Mr Wilson. I would be intrested in hearing how the move went and how ATS 3 is working out. Any date to kill ATSC 1

Only KPRC has some basic interactive features up currently. Houston is the largest launch of this so far. In order to put ATSC 3/Nextgen on the air here, channels 20 and 39 had to basically go off the air with their ATSC 1 signals. 39.1 (The CW) is actually being broadcast in ATSC 1 by KPRC 2 and 20 is on their sister station KRIV’s transmitter now. KIAH 39 is now carrying 2, 8, 11, 39 & 47 in ATSC 3 KTXH 20 is carrying 13, 20, 26, 45, & 67 in ATSC 3. The stations are sending their streams between each other’s facilities via IP video over the public internet. I am an engineer at a station involved in this if anyone has any questions or comments. If you have an ATSC 3/Nextgen TV and are having issues with the signal, let me know.
