Does anyone know anything about channel 52?  I just rescanned my channels on my tv and it's picking that up now.  It's analog so it must be out of Canada. I don't remember ever seeing it before.

Apparently Channel 52 is out of Toronto, Ontario - You must have one super TV to get a UHF station from Toronto - Here is a link that tells you all you need to know about channel 52 and maybe a bit more:

Naw, my tv's nothing special :)  But coming out of torento, eh? Interesting..

I watched it briefly and the show that was on was english.  It appeared to be something from the 60's or 70's and the girl mentioned "Captain Rogers"... So perhaps it was Buck Rogers playing? I dunno.  Never seen it before.

Although it's kind of neat to all of a sudden have free stations, I'll stick with the american digital broadcasts :)

Love the digitals - They are either there and super clear or you don't get anything.

We've been getting this channel for a while. I think it's actually a low-powered analog station being relayed from St Albans, part of the RetroTV network. Because it's low power, it's exempt from the digital requirement.

Anyone else get channel 35 out of Canada? That has some quite, uh, colorful programming!
