WPTV Ch 5 Analog Shutdown - DTV Conversion - Frequency Retune June 12th, 2009 @ 5:45 AM

The end of over 50 years of analog broadcasting by WPTV CH 5 in West Palm Beach, FL . Chief Engineer shows step by step how this televsion station converts their digital transmission from the temporary channel (UHF 55) and move the VHF CH 12. And then the final analog shut down. This was the only station that took the time time to show their viewers the process in the South Florida Market that I was able to find. Kudos to WPTV, conversion well done!
Should you have any problem viewing WPTV, the station's viewer hotline is open. Call 1-800-345-WPTV (9788).
WPTV began broadcasting on August 22, 1954 with the call letters WJNO-TV. At sign-on, the first words heard on-air were from control room director Vern Crawford: "The power has just been turned on for WJNO-TV channel 5 by Frank M. Folsom, President of The Radio Corporation of America."
