Mystery Solved and a bigger problem discovered

The stations are 26.1, 26.2, and 26.3 Omaha PBS

Tonight just before the signal quit they did make a brief announcement that they were concluding their broadcast day and that you could watch them overnight on a list of other PBS stations which I don't get and the cable TV channel. I knew something was up because on the cable they do in fact have one PBS channel going all night long. What a pizzer!

Also, I was trying to set my VCR to tape something overnight and tehre is no way I can set the channel in digital language ie 42.1, 42.2, 42.3 etc. It only takes whole numbers. THIS is a serious problem!!! Virtually renders my VCR useless unless I tape something in real time
