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?

It's not Videotron's fault. On Tuesday there was a fire on a transmission tower that damaged an antenna used by WCAX and WPTZ (see the article here). In this article on WCAX's website they say that they're getting temporary antennas tonight (Wednesday, Nov. 20) and will be going to the transmission tower tomorrow to assess the damage.

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

Hi cbalderr. Regarding the Detroit feed on NBC, it's a redirected feed because of the tower fire. As soon as the tower is up an running in Vermont, the right feed will be shown. Have yourself a good day!
- Anonyme02-12-2019I have read that the replacement antenna is now broadcasting in Vermont. Is there a way to get our channels back? I pay for these channels to see certain NFL games that are broadcasted in Vermont and now I may not have access to see these games. I always seem to have issues with the American channels.

Is it possible for the guide to actually reflect the new feed from Detroit?
