Digital Television
On February 17, 2009, WVTV ended programming on their analog signal, switching to nightlight mode, featuring a loop of a digital transition analog program and local DTV hotline numbers until March 4. On June 12, 2009 at 9 a.m., WVTV moved their digital signal from channel 61 to the vacant channel 18 when the analog to digital conversion was completed. As the station was the only operation in Milwaukee to not retain their pre-transition digital channel, the digital channel 18 transmitter and antenna have been continually going under tuning adjustments since June 12, 2009 to the present day to finesse the signal.

Famous quotes containing the word television:
“Television is an excellent system when one has nothing to lose, as is the case with a nomadic and rootless country like the United States, but in Europe the affect of television is that of a bulldozer which reduces culture to the lowest possible denominator.”
—Marc Fumaroli (b. 1932)
