Here's an outdoor scan from Dallas, TX taken in mid January of this year.  I will have some data from NY and Houston soon as well if you're interested.
Thanks! I will be there in June.

That doesn't look like a post-repack skyline, though. Still has big TV-station blocks sitting neatly on the 6MHz lines.

True, it doesn't.  But thats a scan taken from a 5 week run in Dallas, (actually.. it was closer to Grand Prairie right beside Dallas)  January 2019.

 It is entirely possible that the spectrum looks completely different now as those TV stations move down below 608.

I'm in Dallas this week. Atlanta at the Cellairis Amphitheater is uploaded to IAS.

Many location sound folks in Los Angeles are very unhappy these days. They are going back to wired booms, it seems.

Dallas TX at the Dos Equis Pavilion from this past weekend.
You can use ch 18 and 20 but the noise floor is a bit high. Good for tech mixes close to the tx antenna.

Again, I'm not seeing anything that looks like "post repack" in these scans.

Agreed. I've been surprised at the open space in some of these venues in cities where the re pack is underway.
We'll see in Phoenix where the re pack is done. I remember it being pretty tight there a few months back

I did some scans back in May in Philadelphia, PA and am planning to do some more in August/September (that's the end of the scheduled cutover timeframe for the next phase in our area). I'll see if there's any difference and post them - they might not be as full-spectrum as many would like as my analyzer needs repair, but it might give up some info :-/
