Moving To A Different Address
Hello:
Thanks for stopping by the WGSF Television blog.
I have moved current entries to a new FOLDER on the server -
(mainly a technical thing) to shorten the URL.
These posts are repeated there. Go to

All:
I was quite astonished to see the old KDYL now/later the WFSG Remote
truck still completely intact.
I was the Chief Engineer of KTVX - KCPX - KTVT - KDYL/W6XIS TV in Salt
Lake City Utah from 1983 until 1998.
As a collector of early television memorabilia I had gathered up a huge
pile of 8 X 10 pictures many of which showed that truck in action.
I started in the TV Biz in 1961. In my younger years I saw that truck
all over town and looked in the doors and probably became inspired to
get into the TV biz.
We (KTVX) became interested in doing a 50 year history in 1998 and used
the materials I had collected.
I guess the next question is, has any of the equipment been tried
recently? My experience is that stuff often works.
