WCPO Requests New Digital Channel

Still plagued with viewers' digital TV reception complaints, WCPO-TV (Channel 9) has asked the federal government for a new TV channel.

The ABC affiliate requested to switch to UHF Channel 22 - from VHF Channel 10 - because the VHF signal does not carry as far as, or penetrate buildings as well as the analog signal turned off June 12.

A new digital antenna installed in July, and a 47 percent power boost last month, did not eliminate reception complaints, the station told the Federal Communications Commission last week.
