Yes, I agree Deep Space 9 might have show in Jackson on
channel 50. That is not WKBD TV Detroit however. I would
have to guess that its the channel 47 from Lansing that your
system got it from. People in our area see 50 from Detroit
on cable 14. I know that you probably saw it but, the FOX
50 station has not shown it. I spoke with the director of
programming/and Colunbia Cable today as well . 

>> A side note: TV Stations keep logs...50 in Detroit WKBD
shows no entry in the 8-10pm slot last night.

Again Columbia cable TV subs and people in the Detroit area
will see the first Deep Space Nine Show this Sunday at 3pm.

50 is WKBD channel 50 from Detroit, here, and like in Marquette
as well. My point is it was on channel 50 Monday night, 8 to 10
p.m.

  It *WAS* on channel 50.. I have it on tape if you need more proof.

Correct.  Some areas get "blacked out".  In this case,
the closer areas (I think) got a hockey game.  We did not.
We saw "Deep Space 9".  I'm more than happy to sum up the
plot for those who still do not believe it was on.

Let Dave send you copies for further proof.

It's worth noting that channel 50 does multiple feeds.  If you're
getting it by broadcast or by cable around the Detroit/Ann Arbor area,
you're getting the actual broadcast.  But WKBD sells their signal all
over the US and Canada -- they're not quite a superstation, but they do
have lots of customers outside of the actual broadcast area.  Those
customers get their feed from satellite, which is sometimes a different
feed from the broadcast.  This is particularly true if the item being
fed is something of regional relevance (specialty shows), a sports
event which may "trespass" on another teams broadcast zone, etc.
