KSL-DT is now carrying NBC WeatherPlus on channel 5.3 . I understand that Comcast is also carrying it on their digital tier. There's quite a bit of local weather info, plus the national feed from NBC.
Now if only someone would put a 24 hour news channel on DTV, I could cancel my cable TV subscription. How about ABC News Now on channel 4.3, guys. Or better yet, how about Fox News on channel 13.3.

If you subscribe to Comcast's High Speed Internet access, then you get access to ABC News Now for free, via a live stream to your computer.

Here's what I'm seeing on Comcast digital.
Park City TV now has an apparently fulltime channel on 102. (This is in addition to most of the schedule on 3 and 60 analog on CN3. What's up with two analog channels running an identical feed anyway?)
There's something labelled as "SPROU" on 119 that looks suiously like all PBS Kids programming. It's not authorized, so I can't tell more.
The onyl weather I'm seeing is Weatherscan from The Weather Channel on 101.

I think there is something called "Sprout" offered by PBS... but it may be national, not KUED or KBYU.

That's the info I needed. I'm seeing some indication that PBS Kids has been renamed as PBS Kids Sprout. Why? It's PBS.
From the USA Today Harvard Lampoon edition: "This is the national PBS schedule. Local schedules will vary and will continue to do so until this network gets its act together."

Isn't Sprout the CBC eqivalent of PBS Kids?

There are apparently some changes going on at KUED-DT and KBYU-DT. Both had been running PBS Kids, but now 11.4 has a permanent screen showing "Watch for 'Create' coming January 7th", and 7.3 was running kids programming during the day today, but now has adult programming (Frontline at this moment) that is different than the programming on 7.1 and 7.2HD. (Create TV looks like a "Do It Yourself" channel: www.thirteen.org/watchcreate ) From the www.sproutletsgrow.com Website FAQ: PBS Kids is a partner of PBS Kids Sprouts. Sprouts carries advertising between shows. Sprouts is a 24 hour preschool channel. I'm guessing that because it has advertising, Sprouts will not be carried over the air, just on Comcast Digital and DirecTV. |

Comcast analog was running Jewelry Television (or "Gem" TV, since the board is apparently censoring the first part of the word before "Television") on channels 22 and 78 for a long time before they finally yanked Jewelry (Gem) TV off of channel 22 and replaced it with another Spanish channel (KUTF, channel 3, Price, UT). Why Comcast still wastes a channel by broadcasting Park City TV on two analog channels is anyone's guess. For those who care: Comcast analog in Weber County has added another sports channel to their lineup on channel 65. Gee, with all the sports channels and Spanish channels, Comcast analog seems to be mimicking the Wasatch area radio dial! ;D |

65 is now Altitude. Their big draw seems to be the Denver basketball and hockey teams. Fox Sports Rocky Mountain still has the Jazz.

When I flipped past 65 Sunday night, I was surprised to see a Utah State basketball game being broadcast. It's not often I see any Utah college sports on TV (cable or otherwise) besides BYU and University of Utah. |
