sorry if this is a faq (did not see anything about it, but cookies to doughnuts it's been touched upon even if i did not find any post on this), but is there any plans to bring tfo ota to the ottawa region?

tfo's ota absence in the ottawa-gatineau region really sticks out like a sore thumb -- it's not like ottawa is some remote backwater village... :-\

cheers.

tmp31416, see post 330 and the next few posts following it. Discussed at length already.

Regarding TFO, I wouldn't go that far saying it's discussed at length already. I'd really like to know what instances are the best way to getting through to them. My messages to a member of the OTELFO's CCP didn't go very far. And I haven't heard anybody else finding contact info to get through to them directly, so please share this information if you find anything.

I suddenly have TVO from 28.1 Paris/Kitchener

But still no Global 6.1

Did TVO 28.1 Paris up their power?

Back to decoding fine on Samsung LCD tonight, and on everything else too. Hope this keeps up.

Yea, got the same at this location. But it is gone this morning along with CKCO.

33-1 still in 1080i but has lost it's programming data. Perhaps to fix the fact that it would show what was currently on, but next show was just "TVO Program"

TVO fixed the PSIP program titles for Saturday Night at the Movies last night. We actually got movie titles this week. Glad to see that, thanks TVO. Descriptions are still cut off after a few lines; they don't supply the full descriptions (my TV can display several pages of PSIP program descriptions). I'm very grateful they have PSIP program titles and descriptions, most stations here in Ottawa still don't.

That's good news, Fota. I similarly disliked the generic title.
