About WGSF-TV BlogAbout WGSF TelevisionBy admin on Apr 1, 2008 | In About WGSF Link: http://wgsf.oldgleaner.com/ WGSF Television Public Broadcasting Television Station WGSF operated in Newark, Ohio, from 1963 to 1970 as Channel 28, and then as Channel 31 until it ceased operation in 1976. The story of television broadcasting in Newark, Ohio, has roots that go much deeper than the relatively short life of the WGSF broadcast station itself. It took a lot of work and community cooperation before the first day of broadcasting on Channel 28 began. Many people contributed time, money, and even tangibles over the years in pursuit of a vision that public and educational uses of television were not only a valuable asset, but were also attainable in a local community. These pages about WGSF Television are an on-going project: If you were involved in some way with the TV station, please contribute to this journal and history endeavor. WGSF was unique - and deserves to be documented as fully as possible.

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. This is intended to be an on-going project. Check back often to follow the progress. Contributions and comments are welcome.
