Major Boston TV outage that almost no one is noticing..... State of over the air TV today..

[Mark Laurence]

I had a major problem with 60 Minutes last night with my RCN cable feed. I recorded it on TiVo, and it kept breaking up and skipping several minutes in the program. Finally the recording changed (by itself) to channel 5 and froze completely a few minutes later.

This morning I was completely unable to see ch. 44-2 on the cable, but 4, 5, and 7 were coming in fine on HD.

It's amazing in this world of Cable being fed by fiber from studios that it affects so few people. I guess somthing loss in the transmission line or master antenna. They won't know till they can climb. A few years ago this would have been in the news today hardly anyone notices. 60Minutes was seen by no one who didn't have cable last night.
