Didn't Burlington used to have two stations, one UPN and one WB? I
seem to remember a Ch 39 and a Ch 27 and one went silent or
something (a quick look at TVRadioWorld site says that Ch 27 is now
an LPTV licensed to Plattsburgh NY). But I do remember a Ch 39 being on
when I visited the area years ago...and heard something about them
going dark...
