Why does everyone hate Charlottesville and Hagerstown? ;D (Hagerstown was probably still its own DMA in the '80s; however, by the mid-'90s, it got folded into D.C.'s. And, even though they remain separate DMAs to this day, there's plenty of overlap between Harrisonburg and Charlottesville.)

Hagerstown ... that NBC station was carried in the Dish Network local package that served the area around Petersburg, W.Va. (we had a cabin there for a week in '09). I found it odd because WRC was also on Dish, and I never knew them to offer more than one station per net.

I caught one of WHAG's newscasts, and - apart from the obvious lower-budget look (expected, due to market size) - what jumped out at me was the anchor. I don't recollect her name, but she had a hairdo and shoulder pads (!!) that looked like Hagerstown never left 1985. ;D
