   RW>Greetings TOM!   
      
   RW> TW>>> Not True, It Has a Mexican Call Sign   
      
   RW> RW>> Duhhhh. XETV is a Mexican licensed TV station, thus its ID as XETV.   
      
   RW> TW> The sub channel produced in their San Diego studio and transmitted in   
   RW> TW> English for the San Diego Market does not use the Mexican Call sign.   
      
   RW>I'll bet it does, or their tower wouldn't be in Mexico.   
      
   RW> TW> It is the CW network and on Cox Cable called SD6   
      
   RW>That matters a hill of beans. They broadcast over the air from their   
   RW>location in Mexico. What they probably do is xmit a UHF LOS signal to the   
   RW>broadcast location. What they must have is a FCC license to send that   
   RW>programming from the US to Mexico. Cox Cable is just that, a cable company   
   RW>who uses programming that needs no station ID to use the program.   
      
   While Ch 5, 7, 8 ,9, 10, and 11 are identified by their Cal sign in hte   
   years i havew bene watching SD6 I have never seen any call sign.   
   And XETV is using VHF Digital Channel 6 for both the Spanish and   
   English broadcasts. The Spanish broadcasts are identified as XETV
