One of the things emphasized when the WHDH-V license was set aside
was that there would be no interruption of service to the public. I
can just imagine the public outcry if the Boston area had lost a
station.
And besides, for as long as the channel 5 allocation was in
Worcester, did anyone want to build a station there?
