I thought WCIR was Shane Southerns? Perhaps they are venturing into TV. Hopefully without "help" from Slimer.

At a minimum, he had to get permission to use the calls, right?
Aircheck? You'd make a great board op.

Slimer owns a big part of channel 2, Seems this time he's showing some brains teaming up with a radio group.. I hope he pulls it off just because Bray is in Beckley too.

I see WCIR 2 is on the air, not getting a good signal in Oak Hill on rabbit ears.

He will have to turn it off in a little more than a year.
Wonder where he will get the money for a DTV transmitter and gear?

How many news music packages are they using?

I know Wall to Wall, but I heard two others in that video on their site.

It looks as if the antenna is on the same tower as
WTNJ and WCIR-FM.

The website looks nice, but "Your Family Television"? Shouldn't that be "Your Family Television Station? Or channel? Or shows?

hell, I bet half their equipment is still stamped "wowk, wchs, or wb".... btw, heard some radio promo's for brays fox outfit down that way, other than laughing at the same weather promo that we hear up here in charleston with a different set of call letters attached, all their promos sound like they were just old WVAH promos from years ago that had been re-voiced....

Heard Michael Karr (former reporter for the failed WB News in
Charleston) doing weather for the Southern stations down
in Beckley over the weekend....."Exclusive Channel 2
Weathervision forecast".

Could they be close to getting on cable?
