Looks as if they have a construction permit to go digital on ch 36.

Yes, I think that's the one. I also found it listed on "TVfool.com" as W08CK analog ch. 8 running .025 kW. According to that site, the transmitter is located just over a mile from my house.

I hope they stay on analog for a while longer

We in NYC have an analog channel 6, but it really exists to sneak into FM radios with their sound carrier. WNYZ-LP (Analog) at 3KW. I could barely receive it as a TV station.

Of course, they could switch to digital at any time, but the final deadline (unless it has been changed) is 9/01/2015.

That is only 25 watts. I have run higher power than that with my own TV transmitters (on UHF ham radio)!
