I believe the host channel for VBI data is still KNME, channel 5, analog. However, the updates have ended again as of last Thursday (there may be some updates, but they are very spotty, if at all). I have contacted KNME again. Hopefully, the problem will be fixed quickly.

In this case, I am pretty sure TDS was responsible for the solution. I had confirmation from the chief engineer at the local CBS that they were and had always broadcast the TVGOs information digitally. In addition, at first I only had spotty coverage and when I called TDS they indicated they were transferring the TVGOs infomration manually when they had a spare moment until they could configure the equipment to do it automatically. As good as their word, a week or so later it went to 100% and has been that way ever since.

I am still pleased with their response on this.

Here in OKC it appears we still get TVGOS via PBS, but the listings are only for two PBS stations (13.1 and 13.2). None of the other channels have any data. I'm not seeing anything from CBS.
