The First Day of Broadcasting
The first day of television broadcasting in Newark, Ohio, began
at 2:30 PM on Monday, March 18, 1963.
WGSF Chief Engineer Robert Brooks was at the controls . . . (more)
NEW! Accessible by the World!
WGSF has been reborn - sort of.
Announcing a new web site for WGSF:
Dedicated to persons who were connected with the station, as
Administrators, Employees, Student Staff, Volunteers, or Community
Support.
~Help Preserve the Legacy of WGSF
~Share Memories
~View or Contribute Photos
~Post Messages to the 'Old Gang'
~Review the History of WGSF
~Search the Database Files
Many of the documents, correspondence,
photographs and records from WGSF have been retained,
along with some items of equipment. Hopefully, these web pages will
develop
into a compilation of these resources with memories and insights from
people who participated in the community television experience.
Contributions and comments are welcome.
Please take time to visit the "NEW
WGSF" http://wgsf.oldgleaner.com/
And - By all means - Contact any one that you know of who is part of
the WGSF "Family" and invite them to become involved.
A previous effort to
consolidate WGSF data, photographs and an interchange of information
exists at http://tv.groups.yahoo.com/group/WGSF_TV/
It has served well for a time, but requires a YAHOO!
subscription/membership to access most of the site. It is hoped that
this more open web location will encourage more people to become
involved, and provide researchers easier access to the WGSF story.
A WGSF BLOG
will be set up to replace the Yahoo! message facility.
