No. The "-LD" suffix after the call letters denotes a "Low-power Digital" broadcast license, a different legal class of broadcasting than the full power stations which usually use either "-DT" or "-TV" as their suffix for their legal identification.
See
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o...tation_classes and scroll down to the section headed "FCC service table" near the end of the article.
Low-power broadcasters seem to be lax about filing for the correct license suffix and the FCC doesn't seem to care enough to enforce the rules, so there are a number of low-power stations with an out of date suffix. KRCW is an example.
Battledad,
Glad, you figured out a solution. Tim's observation was key to getting on the right track, so give him a big "thumbs up"! I think his idea of that you were getting the different sub-channels from the different broadcast stations was the correct identification of the issue.
If would be useful to determine which of the two KRCW broadcasts was the issue. Your Sammy probably has a diagnostics or signal meter screen that identifies either the RF channel or frequency. If you have a chance to follow up on that (or the procedure in my post from last evening), it would be appreciated.
