ATSC 3.0 is now live in Syracuse, NY with three stations now broadcasting with the NextGen TV transmissions standard. The stations in Syracuse are WSYR-TV (ABC), WTVH (CBS), and WSTM-TV (NBC).

The participating stations have cooperated to ensure that current programming remains available to all viewers, regardless of whether their television service is provided over-the air or by a cable or satellite company. Antenna viewers can simply rescan their TV sets to ensure full service.

NextGen TV will be able to support new features incusing immersive audio and video, broadcasting to mobile devices, personalized viewing tools, and advanced emergency alerts providing rich media instead of simple text messages.

Syracuse is the 25th market to introduce ATSC 3.0. The other US cities that have launched ATSC 3.0 include:
