Sep 11, 2019 · If you have a UHF-only antenna, beware that WNCN moved from physical channel 17 (UHF) to physical channel 8 (VHF) during the repack. WTVD has had a physical VHF channel all along. If you were able to receive WTVD before the repack, you should be able to receive both WTVD and WNCN after the repack (their transmitters are both at the WRAL antenna ...

As of 9/11/2019 WNCN-TV CBS17 completed the federal government mandated ‘re-pack’ frequency transition along with other broadcast channels in the market. WNCN-TV changed from VHF to UHF and now transmits on channel 8 (still digital 17.1) and is currently broadcasting over an auxiliary antenna (Temporary).

Sep 12, 2019 · Went out and picked up a ClearStream 2MAX antenna from Best Buy for $75 and hooked it up in my attic, and now I'm getting both WNCN and WTVD. As much as I don't love having to drop cash on a new antenna (particularly with the "you won't need new equipment!" assurances from WNCN), glad it's now working.
