I don't understand why the mods can't find out who to contact at the company to get information.  The company has paid to broadcast, so they must know whether they have ditched OTA or whether they are looking for another frequency to broadcast.

Direct your enquiry to your local station manager. 

Mods here can't answer this, it's your local broadcaster who can.

There is no local station manager to contact.  Ion/Scribbs has discontinued broadcasting QVC/HSN.  Presumably their paid contract with Curate expired.  QVC/HSN is paid broadcasting because they do not allow a station to insert paid commercials.  So someone at QVC/HSn knows why they are no longer broadcasting to these markets.  Are they looking for other frequencies to broadcast???

The HSN Channel Finder feature shows cable and broadcast locations for your zip code.   There's probably no real reason QVC's couldn't provide the same, if they wanted to.

I agree.  BTW the broadcast info for my area is out of date cause now we get nada,

We have lost our OTA broadcast channels as well. They were replaced by defy and trureal. I hope QVC can get this sorted and get back into these markets. I miss my QVC! 😒

My local ION station, which had still been carrying HSN, finally dropped it for Scripps programming, which is now on every subchannel, 31.1-31.6.

HSN is carried on a subchannel of the NY ABC affiliate, on 7.4.

I also just picked up ShopHQ which I never received over the air, 48.1.

QVC is on 48.4.

These things change frequently,  so rescan often if you view OTA.

I live in the Metro Detroit area and lost OTA programming for QVC and HSN also. Rescanned channels several times, channel guide still listing QVC & HSN but other programming is broadcasting. I've surfed channel by channel and they are GONE!

Also in Northern Virginia.  Both HSN and QVC were dropped by ION from 66.5 and 66.6.    HSN2 remains available but HSN is gone.  QVC had been broadcast on 49.3, but this morning it too disappeared.   Time will tell whether Qurate finds other frequencies for its HSN and QVC programming.
