Most of the OTAs piggyback on a signal operated by or controlled by

Your main local TV stations. Here in Roanoke, our local NBC affiliate shares the space with 4 other small OTAs (GET, ME, START, and Movies) They also swap out the sub channels rather frequently, so a frequent channel scan will yield new and surprising results. However, I’m still sad that the sub network that carried my favorite show, “Aussie Gold Hunters”, disappeared. Now I’ll never know how much “gode “ they got.
