Re: KHON2 off the air??? (Fri 10/26)
I listened to the 6pm KHON TV News simulcast on the radio this afternoon. That was working. The TV signal I get from my analog cable works fine. Are you on antenna or cable? Has the signal returned since you posted?I'm still here. Are you?

You still don't have a signal? OK.... I forgot I have one of those AM-FM-VHF radios that can catch the audio portion of the TV band.... and from my building, I can't get Channel 2. Got 4, and 5 on low VHF. 9 and 11 works on the high band. I'll take the radio to work with me and see if I can catch something from another location. But sadly, it must be off. A call to channel 2 may be in order.I'm still here. Are you?

i was gonna watch the world series at the park, but couldn't catch khon OTA. i thought i was in a bad area, but we've caught it there before.
even more, it was even hard to find on radio, not on kkea or kumu, the obvious first choices.Always check and double check

Well, it appears that KHON2 returns on-the-air this afternoon.

Being a cable user.. I don't much care if their transmitter is off.. but I suggest you call them to find out why they were off-air if you really need to know. FYI A few years back KHNL's transmitter was off for 2 weeks... no calls received by station. That is either good or bad depending on how you want to interpret "no calls". With cable/satellite saturation approaching, if not already surpassing, 95%... the station transmitters have become almost useless for the price of electricity they have to pay (I know, I know.. for those who have off-air only, its a FCC requirement to transmit but looking at it from purely a $'s point of view... I'd investigate wether to spend $25K a month for your electric bill or just go out and buy the holdouts basic cable service...and shut off the transmitter)

Many years ago, when KHON was still with NBC, they aired a movie after "Saturday Night Live" that featured full frontal and backal and pubal and boobal nudity and sex stuff. My eyes popped out! (Hey, it was the early '80s)
When I called the station Monday morning for a comment for a story, they had no idea what I was talking about. While I had the engineer on the phone, he cued up the tape and within a minute or so he yelped "Holy xxxx! You're right!"
And do you know how many complaints they had from outraged viewers?
Zero.

That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.
