KETV-HD Moving Down The Dial On Cox

KETV's HD channel on Cox Communications is on the move again. After debuting on Channel 809, it was removed from Cox completely in October 2006 during a dispute over retransmission rights.

When an agreement between Cox and KETV's parent company, Hearst-Argyle, was reached in September, KETV-HD returned on Channel 806. Now comes word that it will be moving again - to Channel 709 on Dec. 11.

Summer Miller Widhalm, public affairs manager for Cox Communications in Omaha, said the shift down the dial for KETV-HD is one of a number of channels moves being made.

"We are shifting all of our channels to make room for more HD and to group like channels together," she said.

Do we know why there is only wind noise and a heartbeat on 93.3?

Can't find news on that anywhere.

I just checked and the channel changes are in the Novemember 11th OWH. They are not shifting all the channels. The HD local are moving to the 700 tier and ESPN channels in the digital tier will be grouped together. The local digital channels arwe moving to the 100 tier. Encore WAM is moving to 260 and the 951-956 channel are being discontinued.
