Subject: Re: TV locations






 	
 According to an article I photocopied - and I'll try to locate it soon
to give the reference - WBZ/4 operated from a makeshift studio in the
Hotel Bradford for several days after the June 1948 sign-on. The studios
at Soldier Field Road were not completed in time for the inaugural
broadcast but were finished within a week or so, perhaps longer. 
 WLAW had remote studios in Boston for a time, and in 1950 moved them to
the vacated WBZ studios in the Bradford. WLAW was purchased by The
Yankee Network in 1952 and WNAC moved to the 680 frequency. 1260 was
sold to Victor Diehm (spelling?) and became WVDA. WLAW-FM was shut down
and the license returned to the FCC.
