MHz Networks (More OTA Channels?)
Does anyone get MHZ network channels? Looks like International programming for over-the air. Is it translated to English?
Quote:
MHz Networks is owned by Richmond-based Commonwealth Public Broadcasting and, through affiliate agreements with broadcasters and cable and satellite companies, reaches 27 million households across the country.
But viewers in the Washington region, and some in Baltimore, now get to watch 10 channels over the air free of charge. (The digital transition gave the network eight extra channels to broadcast additional foreign content.)
Five channels, including programs from the Middle East, China and Japan, are aired from a 698-foot tower in Falls Church, while the remaining five channels with programs from Vietnam, France and South Africa are aired from a tower in Prince William County. (Viewers have to point their antennas in that direction to receive the channels.)
