KDKA channel 2 Pittsburgh History

Pretty cool. I'll never forget seeing Bill Cardill doing a news report in "Night of the Living Dead". I was just a kid then, & used to seeing him on "real" TV, so it made the movie more believable.

Lots of fun. I have a Lucite paperweight with a little section of their original broadcasting tower.

They sold these as a fundraiser during the 75th anniversary of the radio station.

I don't know if the paperweights are still available. This was over 10 years ago.

That's pretty cool! It's probably too late but I think I'll give them a call and see if they still have them.
