According to FCC reports, the low power HSN affiliate in Mobile on channel 30 has flash cut to digital.
Also in the list is W17DJ-D, a digital construction permit for W38BQ in Huntsville, which carries the 3 Angels Broadcasting Network.
Down in Tuscaloosa, WVUA has a second construction permit show up in the database. WVUA-CA is analog on channel 7, with a permit to move to 14 as a digital LPTV channel. That is likely superseded by a permit for WVUA-CD on channel 23, from a site near Moundville. I'm going to leave both digital construction permits in the list until I know for sure which one they pick.
WBMA-LP, the actual ABC affiliate for the city of Birmingham, has received a permit to go digital on channel 11. For some reason it varies slightly from the existing permit that has been listed on the site, but it's hard to tell what exactly would be different, coverage-wise, because the map doesn't work. Your government at work.
Odds and ends…
Several Mississippi-coastal FM stations got updated RDS data the other day. For now it looks like the formats are still the same. I didn't get a chance to log the AM dial, unfortunately.
Also, I'm still trying to figure out what to do with the LPTV/digital LPTV sections. The whole LPTV situation is a mess right now, with some stations flash cutting on their existing channels, some displaced ones relocating for a second time, etc. It needs some serious TLC but I just don't have the time right now. Getting that cleaned up, updating some of the data pages and creating the Montgomery metro pages are tasks that need to be done but I just can't find the time to sit down and bang them out.
