Ch 2, 12/24/99: VICTORIOUS, YET TUMULTUOS, YEAR IN LOCAL BROADCASTING -- AUGUST: -- Cincinnati's WCPO-TV removes its signal from the local Time Warner (formerly MediaOne) cable system, paving the way for Dayton's Channel 2 to take over that spot in an effort to improve its reception to cable subscribers in Dayton and its south suburbs. There's a downside to the move, however, because viewers will lose two popular soap operas - General Hospital and One Life to Live - which air on Channel 9. They express their displeasure by deluging Channel 2 and the Dayton Daily News with calls and letters. http://nl.newsbank.com/nl-search/we/Archives?p_action=doc&p_docid=0F51BCF0EED031D0&p_docnum=33

Ch 2, 7/17/2000 Dayton, Ohio -- By Eileen Davis Hudson -- Publication: Mediaweek

WDTN-TV, the ABC affiliate owned by St. Petersburg, Fla.-based Sunrise Television (a division of media giant Hicks, Muse), has also been making a push to win more viewers. The station had a long-standing problem with its distribution on cable, which cost the station thousands of viewers on a regular basis. In addition, WDTN also suffered from signal overlap from the ABC affiliate in Cincinnati, WCPU-TV. Sunrise was able to resolve its cable distribution problem by having its signal position switched from Channel 2 to Channel 9 (the station's over-the-air signal remains on Channel 2). And in a deal that benefitted both outlets, WDTN agreed to eliminate all of its cable clearance in the Cincinnati area and WCPU agreed to keep its signal off Dayton-area cable systems. The pact was finalized in January in a new retransmission consent agreement with Time Warner Cable.

Broadcasting (& Cable) magazine, 3/17/69: -- All but sold -- Firm yes or no (probably yes) on ABC's bid to acquire WKTR-TV Kettering (Dayton), Ohio, is expected momentarily. Deal for channel 16 independent, reportedly at price between $1.5 million and $2 million (Broadcasting, Feb. 3, 24), has been set -- subject to approval by board of WKTR-TV owner, Kittyhawk Television Corp. (plus, as always, subsequent approval by FCC). Kittyhawk board is slated to vote on it today (March 17).

Ch 16 as WKTR: http://www.mrpopculture.com/files/html/mar22-1969/

Week of March 22, 1969 -- ABC’s purchase of UHF station WKTR (channel 16) in Dayton is snafued by rival UHF station WKEF (channel 22). It seems that WKEF already carries a number of ABC-TV programs, some at a loss. The WKEF complaint would most likely take a few years to iron out, so ABC is backing-out of the purchase.

Ch 26, 7/17/2000 Dayton, Ohio -- By Eileen Davis Hudson -- Publication: Mediaweek

While UPN still has limited clearance in Dayton, the WB has enjoyed a boost since the June 1999 launch of a new WB affiliate, WBDT-TV, owned by St. Louis-based Acme Communications. Dayton previously had a low-powered WB affiliate, WUCT-TV, which few viewers knew existed because it was virtually impossible to pick up over the air and was not available on cable. Seeing an opportunity, Acme purchased former Paxson Communications Pax TV station WDPX in Dayton and converted it to a WB affiliate. The most popular Pax network shows, including reruns of Touched by an Angel and Diagnosis Murder, still air in WBDT's daytime lineup from 9 a.m. to noon weekdays and on weekends from midnight to 3 a.m. Acme moved the station from an old broadcast facility in Springfield, about 30 miles from Dayton, to Miamisburg, which is just across the city line. The new state-of-the-art facility is digital-ready. With the relaunch of the station, Acme also hired 10 additional staffers.

WHIO'S JORDAN TO ANCHOR NEWS ON CABLE AT 10

Donna Jordan will be moving to a 10 p.m. newscast, anchoring WHIO-TV's newly named NewsCenter 7 at 10 on Time Warner Cable's UPN, Channel 17. The 10 p.m. news broadcast, which has been on the air for a decade as First News at 10, will include other well-known faces, including chief meteorologist Jamie Simpson and sports director Mike Hartsock. The title and staffing changes come in conjunction with a location move for WHIO-TV's local UPN affiliate. Since June 1, the UPN station formerly found on Time Warner Cable's Channel 44 has been found on Channel 17 for the majority of the Montgomery and Greene counties' Time Warner subscribers. The remaining subscribers will get UPN on Time Warner Cable Channel 6, effective July 1. http://nl.newsbank.com/nl-search/we/Archives?p_action=doc&p_docid=1033A842CE66DE05&p_docnum=9

Miami Valley Channel to sign off at end of year

When UPN announced in January that it would stop network broadcast operations this September, WHIO-TV tried forging an affiliation with new broadcast networks CW Network and My Network TV. At the same time, WHIO-TV made efforts toward a renewal agreement with Time Warner to ensure that one of the new networks would be carried on MVC, but the offer was declined and the networks subsequently offered other Dayton affiliations.

Ch 51, 7/17/2000 Dayton, Ohio -- By Eileen Davis Hudson -- Publication: Mediaweek

While UPN still has limited clearance in Dayton, the WB has enjoyed a boost since the June 1999 launch of a new WB affiliate, WBDT-TV, owned by St. Louis-based Acme Communications. Dayton previously had a low-powered WB affiliate, WUCT-TV, which few viewers knew existed because it was virtually impossible to pick up over the air and was not available on cable. Seeing an opportunity, Acme purchased former Paxson Communications Pax TV station WDPX in Dayton and converted it to a WB affiliate.

TREK TALK: It looks as though Star Trek: Voyager will air in Dayton after all. Channel 45, which at first said the syndicated spinoff series wouldn't be picked up, now says it may be. That's because Act III Broadcasting, owner of WRGT-TV, has become a secondary affiliate of the new United/Paramount Network, which launches Voyager Jan. 16 as part of a two-night lineup that includes two sitcoms and two other drama series. Channel 45 program boss Mike Davis said he'll be firming up the local schedule soon.
