	A selection from a decade of visits to tower and studio sites in the Northeast and beyond
		WRCV 1060 and WRCV-TV 3 thus became KYW 1060 and KYW-TV 3, and Westinghouse took control of a channel 3 facility in Roxborough that was far superior to the old Wyndmoor facility it had given up nine years earlier.
		In order to accommodate their new digital TV signals, channel 6 (now owned and operated by ABC) and channel 3 (now CBS owned-and-operated KYW-TV) again joined forces to build a new tower and transmitter building.
		By the late 1950s, all of Philadelphia's TV stations were looking for increased tower height to serve a market that was growing to include the Lehigh Valley, northern Delaware and all of south Jersey - and that's when Annenberg got a new tenant at Roxborough.

	KYW-TV - Phildelphia, Pennsylvania
		Sets alright, but the best part of this station is their theme, it's an upbeat music-only "KYW" jingle.
		I remember looking at it on KYW's website and didn't realize that they got a new set.

	A selection from a decade of visits to tower and studio sites in the Northeast and beyond
		Since Westinghouse and CBS both owned TV stations in Philadelphia, one would have to go - and the choice was to keep Westinghouse's KYW-TV, flip it from NBC to CBS, and sell off CBS' WCAU-TV.
		But later that year, CBS merged its TV station operations with Westinghouse (which would then go on to acquire CBS), forcing a decision to be made.
		When we first visited Roxborough in 1995, WCAU's status quo had held for nearly forty years - it was owned by CBS and operated its FM and TV signals from the 1950s Dresser-Crane tower and the original brick transmitter building shown at left.
