What is MeTV?

---

Now that TV stations broadcast in digital, they can squeeze three channels where they used to only have one. So now instead of just getting channel 2, you get channel 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3 - all WAFB. With WAFB, though, 2.2 is 24 hour news and 2.3 is 24 hour weather. MeTV is often the NBC second channel (6.2 in NOLA), but in Baton Rouge it's an independent station 30.2.

Schedule

On week days they have what they call "Rope Opera" (instead of soap opera) and show Gunsmoke, Bonanza and The Big Valley one after another. They also show the Rifleman at 5 and 5:30. Late night they show the Twilight Zone, Perry Mason and then The Untouchables.

Unfortunately they show a bunch of Gilligan's Island, Brady Bunch and F-Troop crap.

ETA: All you need is an antenna and a digital receiver (most new TVs have one built in).
