Chinese Language TV in Los Angeles, April 2011



It's been over a year since my last report! Not a lot has happened from the OTA side, but Time Warner did start offering a competitive Chinese language package (look at picture above).

Time Warner's new package includes
ETTV News
ETTV Super
ETTV China
ETTV Drama
ETTV YOYO
Phoenix InfoNews
Phoenix NA Chinese Channel
CTI-Zhong Tian
CCTV-4
CCTV-NEWS

Another OTA channel started up in February 2011 backed by the ETTV guys on 62.6. Mostly Taiwanese content from channel surfing there. I've mostly been watching the news there, pretty recent news too. However, I do get periodic signal distortion with this channel.

Also, since my last post, the 31.X channels signal has improved. Improved so much that I can't remember the last time I didn't get signal.

There also a wikipedia page that keeps a pretty good listing of the channels in Mandarin Chinese, Los Angeles free-to-air networks. The page neglects to list 31.9 as an CCTV-9 channel.

Great news to all you people that want to get FREE Chinese Channels.

18.8 has also increased its coverage to the "cable" networks with these channels:
