Do you happen to know any of the following?

  • Cable Provider
  • Channel # (and what the STAR Displays)
  • STAR ID
  • CC Reporting Site


This info would be great so I (or someone else) can edit the Wikipedia article. :)

You've at least got to know the CC Reporting site if you saw it's a 4000. :unsure:

The CC reporting site is Mackinac Isl. (Mackinac Island)
The cable provider is Charter media. (Charter Communications)
The STAR ID is 006194
The channel number is 11. (TWC is on channel 32 for some reason when the STAR displays 11)

And here is a video. SORRY NO AUDIO. Sorry about the shakiness.

Wow, this is incredible. I did not believe cable was even available at all on the island, let alone them having their own STAR. Don't worry WeatherSTAR3000fan, I may be able to try to get up there to record it myself if you can't (no promises though).

UPDATE: I saw some very minor gradient degradation that is hardly noticeable in the videos.

Mackinac Island has it's own cable system that is not the same as rest of Charter in the area? is there a high number of analog channels there? Is digital cable there? HD?
VOD?

What hotel/location did you find this at? I need to know if I do end up going up there.
