@YoungMoneyBenz I think that's about right. Programs WGTE used sometime though in the early 90's sometimes used a cheap static photo of the downtown skyline over a blue background with the words "WGTE TOLEDO" that scrolls up the screen behind it.
Thanks for the approximate dating. I think they may've used it more in the late 70's since the earliest I remember seeing used locally was variations of "TV30" for their regular station ID's and a later implementation of the PBS logo that took over where "TV" was in the logo. The drawn "WGTE" logo made a re-appearance for a brief period around 2002-03 I believe before it was replaced with the logo they use today.

Og, and shame we're down to 900,000 from nearly 2 million 50 years ago :-(

They may have also pre-empted some of the shows from WTVS in Detroit.

Do you know of any national PBS shows from WGTE?
