Should be the same for KOFY, so it wouldn't collide with Creepy KOFY The station says they hope to have everything up and running by mid-November.

Comcast in Stockton told me that they won't carry KOFY's digital subchannel of 20.2 because it is a out of area subchannel and not a local so no Me-TV for me. I really wished that they could of put Me-TV on its main channel of 20.1. I have also heard that Dish Network, DirecTV & AT&T U-Verse in the Bay Area WILL NOT carry KOFY-20.2/Me-TV. So the only options of seeing Me-TV is either over the air or Comcast Cable TV.

Oct 25 11 9:27 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	The KFTY broadcast (before it turned to Azteca America) had Sven's show on Saturday's from 10-12 (so I had to record Creepy KOFY) since their shows collided in the schedule. I'm hoping for an pre-Creepy KOFY timeslot, instead of after (like Elvira's Movie Macabre was placed).

So it looks like you will either have to watch the first hour of Svengoolie then watch CKMT at 11:PM or watch the entire Svengoolie and watch the last hour of CKMT. Since I don't get Me-TV, I don't have to choose but if I had to choose, no matter how much I loved Svengoolie years ago, I would support the local show, CKMT!

Nov 6 11 6:25 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	It's tough having the overlap. It will be interesting to see how this might affect the numbers for CKMT. I think the audience demographics for the shows are far enough apart that neither is going to take a hit. I actually wouldn't mind seeing CKMT back in its midnight slot - just so we'd have a solid four hour back-to-back block. I've been seeing the more recent Svengoolie shows thanks to friends in other areas of the country who've sent me discs. But last night was the first time since the early 80s that I actually sat down and watched him in real time - and still using the rabbit ears. Old school host, old school technology (with a digital assist). Good times.

Nov 7 11 1:12 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	I have heard that CKMT has been doing much better in their 11:PM slot than what they did in their Midnight slot. What I'd really like to see is have KOFY rebroadcast Svengoolie either before or after CKMT on KOFY's main 20.1 channel.

Nov 7 11 1:24 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	As I understand it, the MeTV schedule is locked. I don;t believe KOFY can adjust their feed. It's too bad. We finally get a couple legit hosted shows on in the Bay Area again, and they're conflicting. Dagnabbit.

Nov 15 11 9:25 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	The KOFY 20.2 signal I can't find. CKMT I watch regularly, but on Comcast I can't find a channel with Sven on it. Does anyone have Comcast and know what channel Sven is on?

Nov 15 11 10:03 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	As it turns out, 20.2 is currently available only over the air by antenna. KOFY is trying to get the substations on Comcast and Dish. But for the time being, it's not on cable. Weird, eh?
