  • Class to the end. Way to go WLWT!

  • A classy ending. WHIO in Dayton did a live "remote" from their master control room, but I think I prefer the way WLWT signed off.

  • how sad. I never understood the whole DTV thing. I didn't see what was wrong with analog, it worked so well. I'd rather dish out the extra buck and get cable than DTV.

  • I like how Bill Meyers, the long time WLWT on air talent did the voice over for the last analog signal. Nice touch.

  • the music and back story to the station made me cry

  • I grew up in the Greater Cincinnati area and often watched WLWT on Channel 5. This station made a lot of historic firsts in the world of broadcasting.

  • Did anyone notice the Laramie Peacock in the video?!? I did!

  • That was a great signoff. That was sad.

  • Good signoff, but too bad they didn't play the national anthem one last time for an extra historical touch.

  • @idkx08 Me too, but it will never happen.

  • you know i thought analog tv support DTV.

    So i hope we can have Digital tv converter

    someday in the Philippines by 2015.

    So that they going to be available
