Looking back at these listings, I believe it was sometime in the new few weeks that the infamous WYVN Fox 60 out of Martinsburg, WV signed on the air. I think they signed on in October of 1991. I actually remember watching them when they first went on the air. Wasn't all that bad. But money or the lack thereof got the best of them and they went from being a FOX affiliate to showing grade Z programs. Grade Z as in showing "Club Karaoke". A program that was taped at a local bar, showing everyone drinking beer, getting drunk ( even the host !! ) trying to do karaoke. Well at least it was local so for that I do give WYVN some credit.
