About

Our story began October 1949 in Huntington, WV, when radio was king and television was the new kid on the block. WSAZ broadcast its first programming, a test pattern and signal tone; to about 14 set distributors and a few individual owners. Television had hit the Tri-State area. 

Today, WSAZ is still the most powerful broadcaster in the region, broadcasting a High definition digital signal seen on WSAZ 3.1.
