WQOW using old tower
editThe page says that WQOW-DT is using the old WEAU tower to transmit their digital signal. What about the analog signal? I think it would come from the same tower. --Libertyernie2 18:02, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
Tower Collapse Info
editI added a citation to the tower collapse mention in "Transmitter Tower" Rockmanac (talk) 04:40, 23 March 2011 (UTC)
- Now there reads also this: A replacement tower was completed by December 15, 2011 and broadcast resumed on UHF channel 38 in late December
- The same height or what? More info would be good. 85.217.22.25 (talk) 21:43, 21 April 2013 (UTC)
- I found something. According to [[1]] the new tower is 1998 feet tall. Oddly, the old one's height was apparently not 2000 feet as the same newspaper article has this: WEAU’s nearly 2,000-foot tall broadcast tower toppled during an ice storm in March. 85.217.22.25 (talk) 00:17, 22 April 2013 (UTC)
- Prior to the tower collapse, I could reliably receive WEAU broadcast programming in Wisconsin Rapids.
- Ever since the newly rebuilt tower, I have never again received WEAU digital programming. 10+ years without an NBC affiliate has been sad as I do like many of their programs. 66.170.67.197 (talk) 22:52, 16 September 2022 (UTC)

High Def
editThis channel is now broadcasting all newscasts in HD. I added a subsection about it and included most other HD related sentences from the main history section. Packerfan386 (talk) 04:58, 8 August 2011 (UTC)
