WBZ-TV History and Where Are They Now?

[Dan.Strassberg]

There was a Channel 9 in Hartford??? I think that would have come as a
surprise to both WOR-TV and WMUR-TV to which it would have been
extremely short-spaced. Don't you mean Channel 8? (Channel 8 was
really licensed to New Haven, but transmitted from Meriden Mtn, I
believe, and therefore also served Hartford.)
