(WZZM)- WZZM 13 increased our transmission power by 50% overnight.
Some West Michigan residents have reported that since the transition to digital television (DTV) in June 2009, they have not been able to receive WZZM 13 over the air. This 50% boost in power may help in receiving our signal.
The power increase took place early Wednesday morning.
Anyone who was not able to receive WZZM 13 on their televisions, should rescan your channels on the DTV converter box or digital television anytime after 3:00am on Wednesday morning. WZZM 13 broadcasts from Grant, Michigan in southern Newaygo County, so your antenna needs to be pointing in that direction. You may then be able to receive WZZM 13.
If that doesn't work, you will want to try a "double rescan." Disconnect your antenna and scan automatically to add channels. Then, reconnect your antenna and scan again.
If you already receive WZZM-13, you do not need to rescan.
If you have any questions, you can e-mail askchuck@wzzm13.com or call (616) 785-1313.
