I still have to be hard-wired! I can't watch a picture that isn't almost perfect!

The BT can.look almost perfect... as long as signal strength is good and you can stand any resolution exceeding NTSC specs not making it to the set... If the set don't have a video input a BT is probably the second best thing to an actual analog NTSC tv station.

DTV is much better; however, the drawback is you must have a very strong signal, or else you don't get a picture at all. I don't know what your definition of an "almost perfect" DTV picture is, but in digital TV there is no such thing; again, with DTV, the picture either is there or it is not. I am purposely ignoring the case of DTV signals that appear pixelated or otherwise unwatchable (I get this every so often with my own setup, which receives video streams over the Internet, not RF signals; I gave up on OTA DTV over a year ago, since I live in an area that does not get two important Cleveland TV stations without cable, satellite or streaming video, although the other stations come in just fine, using just an indoor antenna).

There was no channel 5 in Milwaukee...but before 1953, [I think] WTMJ actually was on Channel 3. Here in Oshkosh, there was WOSH-TV channel 48 and WNAM-TV in Nennah. After they went dark, they merged and became WFRV_TV in Green Bay on channel 5.

Here's an ad for WNBQ using "Tommy Tint," from the Chicago edition of TV Guide, week of March 25 to 31, 1956. At that point they were saying "First In Color" rather than "all color," which they may have started to use the next year.
