1 edit | New PEGs in NJ
Since the old thread is to old to reply to,
It looks like more PEG channels have been activated for the Westwood CO area.
I noticed a new PEG channel on Ch26 from Bergen Community College in Paramus, NJ and Ch32 now has Hillsdale, NJ.
The list of active PEG's on my CO are.
22 PKRG TV - Park Ridge, NJ
24 WCTV - Township of Washington
26 Bergen Community College - Paramus, NJ
28 OPTV - Oradell, NJ
30 Waldwick High School
32 Hillsdale, NJ.
For those south of the CO say in the Rochelle Park area what PEG's are you getting? Do you get the BCC channel on Ch26? |

Now that I think about it,
I believe Verizon Man had said in the previous thread that the PEG channels are not mapped by CO.
That would explain why this area has PEG channels from Park Ridge to Oradell.
I think the southern boarder line for this area is Oradell and Paramus cause we don't see any programming from towns south of those two. |

| Yes I'm still getting the ones for my area.
I think the reason you might not be getting any local PEG's yet is Verizon has not installed the mpeg2 encoders at the broadcast locations of your schools and towns yet.
Once the equipment is installed you should get colorbars on those local channels and soon after local programming. |

I live in Summit, NJ and currently there are no PEG channels on FiOS TV yet. I volunteer for the public access channel in Summit that is currently only on Comcast and I always ask the station manager and others at the station when will the channel be available for FiOS TV viewers in my town. I was told that the channel would be available sometime in June but now the month is over and all the PEG channels on FiOS TV are still blank. I recently was told that it may not be until the end of the summer before Summit's channel will be available on FiOS TV. Also, Summit is supposed to get 2 new PEG channels - 1 government and 1 educational. There's no telling when those 2 new PEG channels will be up and running on FiOS TV. |

The setup for our town's channel was,
Verizon had to run a fiber line from the street to a FIOS ONT box setup in the basement of the town municipal building.
They then ran lines from the ONT in the basement to our control room.
Their MPEG2 encoder was installed in our control room.
The MPEG2 encoder sends it's feed out via IP using an ethernet cable back to the ONT which sends it back to the VHO.
For us it took about 2 days to run the lines, since the building is a bit complex and one more day for them to come back and install the encoder. |

That's interesting since Hillsdale is right next to us.
I wonder if Ch24 might turn on soon with programming from our town. |
