Bozeman Area Digital TV Stations

The Digital TV Channels for the Bozeman area:

ABC
CBS
FOX
NBC
PBS

ABC's analog broadcast was turned off on February 17, 2009, the original deadlines for the digital TV transition. All of the other stations are turning off their analog broadcasts on the new deadline of June 12, 2009.

FOX and ABC are listed as having only "moderate" signal strength. ABC is received well in Livingston, so I assume the reception is good in Bozeman if your antenna is oriented correctly.

To get the new channels on a converter box:
Many stations will be changing channels at various times during the day on June 12, 2009. Be sure to scan for channel changes as convenient on that day and particularly on June 13 after all stations have changed to their final DTV channels.

When we programmed our converter box in March, only PBS, CBS, and the KBZK-CW channels were received in Livingston. All three of the PBS stations have always display crisp, clear, and without any picture issues. The CBS and CW channels sometimes have picture issues, because of a lower signal strength. We actually receive three PBS channels: PBS HD, PBS Kids, and PBS-L (living?).
