That means tons of amazing musicians are taking the numerous stages while thousands of bluegrass fans head to the city to take it all in. Here at Mohu, we&#8217;re huge fans of great music, so we&#8217;re excited to have this event right here in our backyard.<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s even more exciting though is that our friends at <a title=\"Do You Get It? - WNCN: News, Weather\" href=\"http:\/\/www.wncn.com\/story\/26686055\/do-you-get-it\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">WNCN<\/a>, the Triangle&#8217;s NBC affiliate, are broadcasting tonight&#8217;s 25th Annual <a title=\"IBMA Awards\" href=\"https:\/\/ibma.org\/world-of-bluegrass\/awards\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">IBMA Awards<\/a> Show LIVE for folks in the area to tune in and enjoy if they can&#8217;t make the festivities in person. \u00a0The awards show will air at 7:30 p.m. tonight on WNCN channel 17-2. If you&#8217;re thinking that channel looks funky because of the &#8220;-2,&#8221; that&#8217;s because it&#8217;s the WNCN <a title=\"Digital Subchannel\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Digital_subchannel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">digital sub-channel<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Like tonight&#8217;s IBMA Awards Show, digital sub-channels offer a lot of entertaining, unique content that you can enjoy in addition to the main broadcasts. The catch? Well, if you&#8217;re a satellite subscriber, unfortunately you won&#8217;t be able to watch these sub-channels. Since satellite providers are limited to how many local stations they can carry, they focus on the primary channels for as many local networks as they can. And if you&#8217;re a cable subscriber, chances are the sub-channels are buried deep in your channel guide and hard to find.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, it&#8217;s incredibly easy to pick up your local broadcast networks sub-channels with an HDTV antenna, so even if you aren&#8217;t a cord-cutter, you can still take advantage of these free, over-the-air broadcasts using an antenna in addition to your cable or satellite subscription. The antenna can also serve as a back-up in case you experience <a title=\"DirecTV and Raycom Media Dispute: How to Avoid Blackouts\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gomohu.com\/store-wordpress\/blog\/directv-and-raycom-media-dispute-avoid-blackouts\/\">blackouts<\/a> or satellite signal disruptions.<\/p>\n<p>Curious what kind of sub-channels you can get in your area? Check out this <a title=\"RabbitEars.Info\" href=\"http:\/\/www.rabbitears.info\/market.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">listing<\/a> to find your local broadcast market.
