WJAC-TV

WJAC-TV is the NBC-affiliated television station in west-central Pennsylvania with the station licensed to Johnstown. It broadcasts a high definition digital signal on UHF channel 34 from a transmitter northwest of the city in Laurel Ridge State Park along the Cambria and Westmoreland County line. Owned by Sinclair Broadcast Group, the station has studios on Old Hickory Lane in Johnstown.

History

WJAC-TV first began its broadcasting operations on 15 September 1949 originally owned by the Johnstown Automotive Company along with WJAC radio (AM 1400, now WKGE at AM 850, and FM 95.5, now WKYE at FM 96.5). At the time, it was the third smallest television station in the country market wise to be granted a commercial license on or before December 31 behind CBS affiliate WBNG-TV in Binghamton, New York and fellow NBC affiliate WICU-TV in Erie. It originally aired an analog signal on VHF channel 13 before moving to VHF channel 6 in 1952. Upon its sign-on, it aired programming from all four networks of the time (NBC, CBS, ABC, and DuMont). CBS disappeared from WJAC-TV's schedule when WARD-TV channel 56 (now Pittsburgh's CW affiliate WPCW on channel 19) signed-on in 1953 followed by DuMont when it shut down network operations in 1955. However, the station continued to air a few ABC shows into the 1980s.

    (Hello?
    Hey, it's me.
    Hey, what's up?
    Uh, me and the boys were gonna go for a ride, downtown or
    Something. You wanna come?
    Yeah, I guess.
    Can we take your car?
    What?)
    Yeah, uh-huh
    C'mon baby
    VERSE ONE:
    Come and take a ride with me
    It's time to leave your worries behind
    Take a little time at the wheel
    'Cause I know it's gonna be alright

    Baby, can't you see
    Listen what I say
    Everybody, one two three, take a ride with me, c'mon
    CHORUS:
    Run away from the world behind you
    (Run away, your cares won't find you)
    Up ahead is where your cares won't find you
    You gotta go where your soul is free
    (Take a ride with me)
    Baby, one two three, take a ride with me, c'mon
    Down the road, don't you know you're flying
    (Down the road, the stars are shining)
    You'll be headed where the stars are shining

    Listen what I say
    Everybody, one two three, take a ride with me, c'mon
