laff is also on 33-002, so that makes 3 channels, but no QVC

@thecuriousegg - You may have already tried this, but just in case, here's a link to QVC's channel finder: https://www.qvc.com/content/channel-finder.html

The information is updated fairly frequently, so if there isn't an over-the-air option for QVC in your area when you search, keep checking every few days—sometimes there will be a transition period when a station is not available at all as it moves from one channel to another. Good luck!

@loriqvc:;  The channel finder only lists cable services.  We are all looking for over-the-air channels. There is an earlier forum topic with the same problem in other cities. So far, QVC has not responded to the over-the-air problem.

@socrates2 - Ah, good to know. Since I watch QVC through the Roku app, I hadn't checked the channel finder recently for my zip code. Interestingly, it lists channels for two providers that don't even serve my area.   QVC (and Q2) have terrible signals in my city and only offer standard definition service, so that's why I typically watch via app.

@thecuriousegg.  There was a thread on this subject yesterday.  There seems to be a problem nationwide with QVC disappearing on over-the-air TV.   Maybe the contract they had with local stations ended with 2020.  I do still get HSN.  They continue to shoot themselves in the foot.

I'm not getting it in Albuquerque.

I too watch QVC over-the-top. In Boston, the Q and HSN appear appear as subchannels of our ION affiliate, channel 68. QVC over-the-air does not "own" the stations they broadcast on; t's up to the whims of any station's owner what they broadcast.

However, it may be just an issue of rescan being. A couple of years ago the FCC had all broadcast stations move their digital channels, and everybody in Boston had to rescan. Every local station in Boston, except ION channel 68, chose the same day to switch and told viewers in advance. Channel 68 is basically a robot, so one day their signal was bam, gone. I rescaned  and found it ( but on a weaker signal, boo!)

I tried asking the question on the QVC live chat. The first answer I got was about cable. I said, "No, over-the-air" "antenna." The answer was that they were sorry, but they didn't have that information. 

Has anyone found  out more?

QVC has finally reappeared Over The Air (antenna/network) in New Jersey - channel is 48.4 based out of Secaucus. Yay!
