The Tube Network (WTTA OTA channel 38-2) is coming to FiOS soon. At this time I don't have a date nor a channel number (somewhere between channel 853 - 869).

I think it's considered one of those special "Local Plus" channels.

The Tube Network is on 864 with NBC Weather plus on 850 and WEDU on 865.

Unless they move the other WEDU channel that I currently have on channel 864, I don't think its going to be there.

Looks like they goofed - I got the info from the FiOS TV Web site - a PDF file listing the Florida Gulf Coast Area Channel Lineup. In the "Local Plus" section it stated 850 NBC Weather Plus, 864 Tube Music Network and 865 WEDU FLA. The person typing it probably reversed the two channels. It makes me wonder how many other mistakes are in that document.

I wonder if TUBE might be better suited to the 170-185 range with the other Music channels (MTV, VH1, IMF, BET, CMT...etc). They also include it in other "Local Plus" channel line ups in CA, MA, NY, TX, VA, PA. This station is really a grey area because it's national, yet it's broadcast by a local station in the sub-channel.
