WAFB/GCSEN Antenna
Posted on 10/7/24 at 11:20 am

Good morning,
I use Youtube TV to watch Streaming Channels, WAFB's 9.1, 9.2, 9.3 are no where to be found when i do channel scans with the new Antenna i purchased on Amazon.
I am able to find WBRZ, WGMB, WVLA, and LPB stations, 12 channels are found but none from WAFB.
How do I go around to make sure WAFB gets picked up on the antenna.
WBRZ is 9 miles away from me, and WAFB is 8 miles away but i get WBRZ but don't get WAFB.
Must be something on WAFB's end that is not allowing us to use Antenna.
the only current option would be to get Cox Cable which we are not interested in getting on top of YouTube TV that we already have.
It sucks that we have to use Antenna to try to get the Pelicans game on TV. Suggestions?

The 9.3 channell isn't one that comes in clearly.
I can't catch it on my mohu leaf antennas i have in windows. I only catch it with my better antenna i have in the attic (also facing out of a window) and even then the signal goes in and out at times.
Granted i probably need to adjust my attic antenna, which i'm waiting for it to not be hot to do that b/c it's not easily accessible, but the signal for that channel doesn't seem to be a very strong one to catch unless you have a good antenna with a clear path in the direction of that signal.
and channel 9 is probably the hardest one to hone in on for antennas in BR.
Download the antenna pointing app on your phone and it will show you exactly where the tower is at, and you'll just need to make sure you antenna has a good path to that signal. If you've got trees in the way, there might not be much you can do about it. I've been on campus before and unable to catch WAFB, and you're like 5 miles from fricking tower.
The WAFB tower is just south of Brightside Dr. It's right behind the big River Bend subdivision on Brightside.

I was able to find the digital channels on one tv, but not on the other using the same antenna. I am not sure if it is a difference in newer tv software for the search or that I need to do a specific search for Digital over air tv channels on the tv where I can't find 9.3
Try a specific digital over air tv search.
Good luck.

9 is in that RiverBend area, 33/44 are just west of them across the river, and a little south of 9, and then 2 is south of them in the next bend in the river closer to St. Gabriel. So if you're directly east of them, then you basically point at 33/44 and you're in the middle of 9 and 2, and both are weak signals., which is the case if you live closer to highland/I10. If you live closer to the 10/12 split, or west or north of it, then you get to point the antenna more in line with how channel 2 and 9 are set up and get a better signal for 2 and 9.
The closer you live to the towers it seems the harder it is to get a good signal for both 2 and 9, unless you are north of them and you get to poitn the antenna in both of their directions.

I live in St Gabriel and i have no issues with getting 2 but im not able to get 9 for any reason even if i turn antenna the other way.

I think it's b/c you're too close to it, so you have to really point it in the exact direction of it and you don't have much wiggle room, where as if you were 30 miles from it you can point it in the general direction of it and be ok.

The Pels are supposed to be launching a streaming service like Utah and Phoenix did last year. They've said it's coming but haven't given any details yet.

Just announced it will be on Fubo, which is the worst streaming service, especially for the price point

Sounds on par for a Gayle Benson run organization

You don't know what love is then because Hulu and YTTV kick the shite out of it and are cheaper.

I don't think they could have botched this situation any worse

Yeah, they shouldn't pursue getting on a certain streaming or cable service because some people don't like it. They should only try to get in services people like, such as Cox Cable. People totally love them.

Props to the pels for reaching the rural areas. I’m still rocking 14.4.
