KAIL-TV Fresno

If you rescan your TV, you'll find a new 53.1 "My53". The call sign is KMSG. It appears Cocola may have taken over the programming. Family Guy and some shows that were on KAIL 7.1 are on the new channel.
Yes good thing to save Fresno TV, good thing KMSG is a full power station, now to get Cable and Sat. coverage, Xfinity has spots open for new local HD channels 710, 714, but I think it belongs on 713, Sat service dish and direct channel 53 is still KAIL 7.1, need to fix that, thanks to Gary Cocola for saving history Fresno TV and Radio "KKDJ".

I'm only one year late with this ... sorry.
Gary Cocola and I are professional acquaintances and I had asked him about this a year ago. He is leasing a KMSG subchannel to KAIL's former owner (who happens to be the grandson of Chester Smith, who founded KLOC-TV/19 in Modesto, for those who dote on such trivia) to continue the KAIL programming lost when he sold the station to TCT.

An after-the-fact self-correction: Gary leased a subchannel to Joshua Castro on KGMC/43, not KMSG/39.
