You may be correct that some low power analog stations are still allowed in the channel 2 to 6 band. I was referring to the digital channels being transmitted since we never scan analog unless we find no digital stations.
We were traveling the last few weeks up in the U.P. area of Michigan along the shores of Lake Superior. In the Painted Rocks National Seashore campgrounds and two Michigan State Parks east of there, we picked up CBC channel 2 (analog) out of Canada, using our double-amplified Winegard system. They are still using both analog and digital signals since they are still in the conversion process.
Judging from our government's latest paralysis in getting anything done some analog low power stations may still be there for a while.
Eh, did you bother to look at the data-base I pointed out in my previous post?

Just as three examples of stations broadcasting digital signals on RF channel two, which you claimed had been "reassigned" to some other service.
you have me mixed up with someone else, sir. I said no such thing. quite the opposite. someone else claimed that all of the broadcasters had been re-assigned out of the VHF portion of the band into UHF assignments. I pointed out that there are indeed a few stations still in the VHF portion of the band (RF frequencies previously associated with channels 2-13). CBS 2 in Chicago is one. your list simply confirms what I pointed out earlier.
