WTNX-LD 15 Will Be Moving


- Posted September 11th, 2023 at 1:46pm
WTNX-LD channel 15, Home of 4.10 WSMV and 29.1 WTNX-LD which broadcasts on a short tower on the East bank of Nashville, is going to be moving. They just filed with the FCC today that they will be moving to the WRTN-LD RF17, WJFB RF25, WNTU-LD RF26, WKUW-LD RF28, WPGD RF33, WJNK-LD RF34, and WCTZ-LD RF35 tower in northern Nashville. So, if you have been struggling to receive them or even WSMV on RF10, then you might be able to receive them once they move. Now, it will be awhile before this happens, because they will have to wait until the FCC grants their application. Once they do grant it, it will become a construction permit. They can then move it whenever they can after that. I will be adding a pic of their broadcasting range later this evening. Until more news breaks, that's all for now.

If only they could do it for W14EE. I get it when tropo is good and most of the time it is on the verge of going out.

I wonder why they are not moving to WSMV's tower?

Probably because they want it in the Nashville area and not anywhere else.

The new WTNX map along side WAFF in Huntsville, AL. https://www.rabbitears.info/contour.php?appid=25076ff38a6c9d0f018a761604b10509&site=1&dma=N&contour=Y&lppc=N&int=N&pop=N&incpop=&excpop=&z1=N&nrqz=N&lprw=N&head=Y&asrn=&extras=25076ff3630402ee01632c93c25a4f31&cir=&circen=

I looked at both maps. They will interfere with each other but I have a concern about WPBM-LD from Bowling Green that is located in Scottsville, ky. They both are close to each other and might interfere more than WAFF.

Good news for me here in Gallatin. I can receive WSMV on VHF 10 pretty well. Their signal is about 25db for me. I have never been able to receive WTNX-LD on UHF 15. The higher tower will be a huge improvement.

You will be within the contour line of WTNX-LD. So when it eventually goes to its newer tower then you will get it great.

It will be great because, for me, WSMV's VHF 10 is fragile in bad weather.

That's good for you and anyone else that lives near Nashville. I am too far out to to receive WTNX-LD but I receive W14EE marginally.

W26FM-LD filed for a construction permit in the Bowling Green, KY market.

W35DZ has filed a Minor Modification to their CP. They are changing from 8 bay antennas to 12.
