Hello everyone. To all those fathers here on TVNT, a very Happy Fathers Day to you all.

 

Just wanted to let you know that WHTM-TV and WHP-TV will be celebrating both 60 years in early July ... WHP-TV went on the air July 4th, 1953 and WHTM-TV (back then WTPA-TV) went on the air July 6th, 1953. WHTM has started to air promos about it and they had their tacky logo from back in the day.

 

Not sure if any documentaries are being planned but if so, I will let you know.

 

Also, through a friend whose husband used to be a engineer at ABC27, who sadly has since passed away, I will be going, as her guest to the ABC27 60th Annivesary Open House on June 30th. I know I will have to be nice and mind my critique and manners, but looking forward to possibly meeting Chuck Rhodes and whoever I can talk with. Can't wait. I will try my best to take pics and yes, I will get to tour the studio. Should be fun.

 

Take care all and Always Remember ...

 

-- Matt
