Time Warner Cable added Me-TV to Ch.144. I have no way of knowing if this is a national feed, WSAH from Bridgeport, CT, or something else. WSAH's line-up on Me-TV's website shows informercials late night and morning, but the TWC guide shows wall to wall classic TV. Anybody have any other insight?

The fact that it's an uninterrupted stream of non-infomercial programming is kind of a dead giveaway that it's not WSAH. If you stick around at the top of the hour, you'll see either the ID for the network or a local affiliate, that should answer your question.

Yeah no local ID, just Me-TV. Again, while the WSAH program guide shows E/I and infomercials this morning what's actually on the air is Petticoat Junction and Family Affair.

Well, folks add this to the fire...
WSAH is now WZME and ID's itself as MeTV New York. Their Legal ID is WZME Bridgeport/New York

Interesting. Did the station get sold? Wasn't it up for auction a while back? |

I think it got sold to NRJ like WMFP in Boston, which is losing ME-TV to WCVB.

Nothing had been stated that WMFP is losing ME-TV. Weigel has a new carrige agreement with Hearst tv which includes WCVB. WCVB still has to get cable clearance for 5.2 when it goes live. WMFP already has cable clearance as well as Satellite clearance (Directv , DISH) So I am Sure Weigel (ME-TV) will allow for 2 ME-TV's in the same market.

I've heard talk that WZME is attempting to expand their signal, particularly to the New York City area. Have not seen anything further. Anyone have any details, and also how is it that Time Warner has a 24/7 feed while the station cuts half of the network programming in favor of advertising? I'd really like to see Cablevision add an uninterrupted feed as TWC did.

I have been hearing this for years. There was talk of them moving to the ESB and I think they even had filed with the FCC to do so. But my guess is that it is at least partly cost prohibitive given the small size of the station. |
