Frankly, I never liked Tech TV, and very few of my

I never watched it regularly. However, I appreciated it because it was

They could have purchased it just for the
"license". While the cable
channels are not regulated by the FCC like the broadcast stations, some
companies (Infinity, Clear Channel, etc.) do this exact thing to
independent radio stations just to get that "slot". It has nothing to do
with the format, the employees, the listeners, or anything else, for that
matter. Just the fancy bit of paper hanging on the wall.
Yep, that's probably the case here. Oh well...
