TECHNOTE: WKAR TV channels missing for some over-the-air viewers

If you receive WKAR-TV over the air via antenna and have lost channels 23.1, 23.2 and 23.3, please rescan for channels on your TV. After a rescan, WKAR TV channels should return.

Beginning Monday evening 11/14, due to difficulties with the Electronic Program Guide component of our digital television transmission, some sets may have lost the ability to tune to WKAR-TV on channel 23.  The issue was corrected Tuesday morning, 11/15.

For those who lost WKAR from their channel line-up during that period, a channel rescan now should retore all of the WKAR over-the-air broadcast channels.

Viewers who receive WKAR via cable or satellite service providers were not affected.

WKAR has closed the gap left by the loss of federal funding. Because of you, trusted journalism, inspiring stories, and classical music remain freely available to everyone in mid-Michigan.
Now the work continues — your monthly gift helps maintain this success and keeps public media free for all.
