Some news related, with the usual deletion arguments saying WP:NOTNEWS and it is only notable a single event (WP:BLP1E).

Colorado Springs digital over-the-air TV channels
[edit]![](http://up.wiki.x.io/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/24/Crystal128-tv.svg/128px-Crystal128-tv.svg.png)
- Moved completed table to Media in Colorado Springs, Colorado on 25 Jan 2011, six months after starting it.
I picked up an ATI TV Wonder 600 on Woot.com for $25. photo [44] [45] Later I purchased a Sony Bravia KDL-52NX800 television.
Almost all OTA channels are digital after the digital television transition in the United States. Each frequency has enough bandwidth to broadcast more than one channel, so there are several digital subchannels. In addition, VHF channels (3-13) are harder to receive as digital channels than analog channels, so many stations moved from VHF to UHF, including KKTV on 24 Jan 2010.
ATSC is a group of North American standards. Channels numbers mostly virtual and are remapped with the Program and System Information Protocol (PSIP).
