		<title>Sat 1/28: planned maintenance at Sutro Tower, SF</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Sutro Tower needs all stations transmitting from there to switch to their auxillary antennas on Saturday (1/28) morning by 8am so they can do some tower work. This includes KQED&#8217;s DT9 signal. They hope to be done by noon. Most OTA viewers should see little or no change in their reception during this time, but [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tues 1/24: KQET DT25 digitization problem resolved</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As of 1:45pm Tuesday 1/24, we believe the KQET digitization issues affecting Channel 25&#8242;s signal delivery to viewers in the 831 area via most paid service providers have been solved. Other carriers are confirming a good signal. (Over The Air viewers and Comcast Cable customers were not affected by the problem.)]]></description>

		<title>Mon 1/23: KQET DT25 digitization problem has returned</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The storm and high winds took our KQET transmitter on Fremont Peak Off the Air a couple times Saturday, and our digitization problem has returned.

		<title>Wed 1/11: DT54 power levels update</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Our DT54 transmitter on Monument Peak has been alternating between regular and auxillary antenna service (and thus lower power at times) since last Friday as another station on the tower works on their antenna, and as PG&#38;E replaces damaged power lines leading up to the transmitter. The hope is that both tasks will be completed [...]]]></description>
