Most of this info can be found on bostonradio.org.  In rough chronological
order...

1957 - Channel 4 (after Hurricane Carol knocked over the original tower on
       Soldiers Field Road in 1954; moved from temporary site in Malden)
Early 1960s - Channel 7 (moved from Malden)
1960s - Channel 2 (moved from Great Blue Hill)
1967 - Channel 44 (signed on)
1971 - Channels 38 (moved from Pru), 56 (moved from Woburn)
1972 - Channel 5 (when WCVB signed on; the former WHDH-TV was located on
       what is now FM-128, just down the road in Newton)
1977 - Channel 25 (signed on)
1979 - Channel 68 (signed on)
