Talk:CHCH-DT

 CHCH is still available throughout most of Ontario; however, it cannot broadcast to Thunder Bay, Peterborough, Oshawa or Kingston because of complaints made to local cablesystems by other local stations.

Eh? It is available on Rogers Cable (only cable provider) in Oshawa, and it is receivable by antenna as well. It is not entirely clear what is being said..

Meaning of CHCH
The official meaning of the call letters were that the original owner (name forgotten) liked the idea of Canada, Hamilton so much, he doubled it, coming up with CHCH.

Re: CHCH in Oshawa
I think what was technically meant was that CHCH couldn't put a transmitter in Oshawa because of CHEX-TV-2, but the programming is already readily available there. Just as CHEX has CBC programming that is readily available there from CBLT. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Mjlarochelle (talk • contribs) 05:13, 13 January 2007 (UTC).

First Independent Station?
When was the exact day that CHCH broadcasted as an independent station? Though CHCH is definitely the frist anglophone independent station, CFTM-TV may have been the first independent station. It started broadcasting on 19 Febuary of 1961, so it could have started a few months before CHCH.--Fantastic fred (talk) 00:34, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
 * October 1, 1961. Technically the first indy in Canada would be CFCN Calgary, signed on in September 1960 followed by CHAN Vancouver one month later.  єmarsee  •  Speak up!  00:54, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

The ONTv logo
First of all, the FUR is wrong - "The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the article discussing CHCH-TV, a subject of public interest. The significance of the logo is to help the reader identify the organization". It's not in the infobox. The logo doesn't help the reader identify the organization, because the organization this article is about is CHCH-TV, not ONTv. It's not critically discussed either, other than to say "this logo was used from 1997-2001". The reader doesn't need this logo to understand that the station was renamed during this time (WP:NFCC). As such, the logo is spurious per NFCC. Black Kite 17:24, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
 * I've placed the free File:CHCH ONTV.svg into the article, but was reverted, several times. Maybe someone can help here? I would do it myself, but I would be headed towards 3RR, at the moment, I'm only at 2. єmarsee  •  Speak up!  17:25, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
