Portland, Oregon is Completed

Post-Midnight Edit: KTOO-DT has filed for an STA to go silent. Apparently an avalanche has cut a mile and a half of power lines which fed Juneau's power, so the whole town is being run off of diesel generators. KTOO wants to kill their digital signal so as to save energy which is expected to spike 400% in terms of cost. Given that their digital signal is twice as powerful as the analog, this makes sense. This is noted in the DTR, along with all other new filings from the weekend.

As I stated, I got another market this evening. I didn't actually plan to get Portland, but I'm not arguing!

My source was unable to receive KPXG or KORS-CA, so I guessed at KPXG based on another ION station. I'd be very interested to see KORS-CA, but such is life.

Also, note that the previously mentioned new feature is in testing. If you sign up for an account, I can send e-mails when the site is updated either daily, weekly, or monthly, and it can be customized for whatever markets, networks, owners, or stations you'd like. Check it out if you're interested.

Of course, it's not automated in any way yet, so it relies on me remembering to send it at the moment. I'll get it in my script eventually and then it'll be more regular.

I hope to have another market in the very near future. If I'm really lucky, I'll have three.
