Outage - CBS and NBC (maybe others)
What the heck is going on that these stations are off the air? What kind of technical problem could last this long?

Correct. In my case it should be NBC plattsburgh but Videotron is showing NBC Detroit instead. I realized by not showing MACYS Thanksgivig parade, but local detroit parade??? Also shows are not as whown in the guide.
Anybody else in this situation?
Is this because of that Tower fire reported in Vermont?
Thanks

August 3rd and we are still getting CBS and NBC from Detroit while showing the WRONG programming on the Videotron guide. What the hell is going on, it’s been WEEKS

Hi Dumos,
They are currently installing the new antenna over in Vermont, making the signal unavailable for a while. In the meantime, we are patching in the signal from Detroit and waiting for our partners to finish with the new installation. This means there can be some disperencies between the guide (which shows the usual schedule) and the content (which is Detroit's).
Here is an article from WCAX about this situation: https://www.wcax.com/2020/07/28/wcax-must-temporarily-power-down-over-the-air-signal-wednesday/
Thank you for you understanding,
