News for Saturday, October 31st, 2015

• One of the digital sub-channels for WFGX-TV had programming from a new national TV programming service that was set to begin today (the sub-channel (virtual channel 35-3/radio frequency channel 50-3) was added to their broadcast operation for the purpose of broadcasting programs from the service; as for the name of the service, it was Comet).

• The digital sub-channel for WKRG-TV that usually only had weather information (including graphics, text, and instructional programs) had an updated version of a message it had earlier this calendar week about changes planned for it: "Weather information on this digital channel 5.2 will be permanently replaced by ION TV on Monday, Nov 2nd. Please use wkrg.com or the free News 5 weather app for weather, outside of our newscasts".
