Circle Network

I discovered the Circle Network kind of by accident. I left my antennae up and one day when Comcast was down I was channel surfing and happened upon it. From what I see it isn't available on Comcast here, but it may be in your area? Anyway they have a great assortment of southern gospel music and live broadcasts from the Grand Ole Opry. I had never heard of Dailey & Vincent but they are very good and have programming on there as well. They also have reruns of Hee Haw and other classic TV shows. Check it out if you like country music - you'll be a fan.

If you, like I, had no idea what Circle Network was/is, here's a brief explanation.

Thank you for posting that. At least in the Indianapolis area it comes in via antennae on channel 13.6 which I think would be called a sub station of channel 13, which is the NBC affiliate here? I also see you can get it on Roku, Etc. but don't know much about all of that. Maybe Comcast will pick it up if it gains in popularity?

There seems to be a bunch of smaller digital channels, mostly carried as an OTA subchannel, that have popped up in the past 5-6 years or so. We get almost none of them. Dish did offer them; but my folks went back to Comcast due to really bad signal reliability; and not having several channels that Comcast did for the same money--but we lost almost all of those smaller networks, which I watched a lot, as they mostly aired the better, older programming from the 1990s and earlier--not this PC "watching paint dry" intermixed with "incredibly raunchy and low-brow" stuff on today.

Comcast doesn't seem to want to offer a lot of smaller, less prevalent channels that are subchannels of the local channels associated with major affiliates which we get here. For example, Laff we got on Dish Network; presumably because WLFG a small religious network out of Grundy, offers it as a subchannel. Comcast does not; even though we get WLFG. Ion Television (which I view is a pretty well-known network) is a sub-channel of 2-3 different main channels around here (including WLFG); but Comcast seems to only want to offer it on higher packages as of recent. Used to be, it was on our package. Where I live, in the mountains, an OTA antenna is about the most useless thing you can own.

It's listed as on channel 9.6 in the Denver area but I haven't checked, some listings are not actually there. Going to have to give it a try.

Many of the gospel music artists like Dailey & Vincent have been around what is called the Gospel Grass, as opposed to Blue Grass, circuit for years. The music tends more toward the folksy than say Bill Gaither's style. I love it, find it very inspirational.

Was picking this station up even down here in Florida for a while, but can't pick it up lately. Not a huge country music fan, but they were showing F Troop for a while. Sure did enjoy seeing that again
