Wilmington TV Broadcasters to Continue Analog Broadcasts after Sept 8

Beginning at 12 noon on September 8, 2008, WWAY (ABC), WSFX-TV (FOX), WECT (NBC), WILM-LP (CBS) and W51CW (Trinity Broadcasting) will transmit their commercial programming only on digital channels. Viewers tuning to the stations' traditional analog channels following September 8th will see graphics informing them of options for receiving digital broadcast signals through the month of September. In the event of an emergency, such as a hurricane, the stations may elect to provide emergency information and announcements on their old analog channel.
