Strange new channel

Greetings All,

Recently I have been receiving TV station WCWN (An Albany/Schenectady station) that I Have determined is RF channel 22, and an NTSC-V3 (NextGen) signal.

According to information from the Web, the transmitter for this station is well over 80 miles away from my home in Marlboro, NY, with the Catskill Mountains well in between.

Although my antenna is not the most directional (4 bay bow-tie), the signal appears to be coming from the EAST (which is where I pick up most of my other stations).

To add to this mystery, every 5 minutes or so, the signal disappears for a second or two (as per my Spectrum Display). Other than this strangeness, the signal is a fairly steady level.

Does anyone know if a satellite station is being set up in the Hudson Valley of NY?
If not, any idea where this mysterious station may be emanating from?


Thanx.

Richard Rosa
