Lake Worth history: Does anyone know the frequency in Lake Worth Beach?


From the Office of the City Manager in
City of Lake Worth datelined April 10th, 2007:

Fast forward to April 2019. Do you still have a television antenna? If so, there is new news in today’s Lake Worth Herald that is worth noting.

Front page news today, April 11th, 2019 in the
Herald is about TV antennas!


The headline below the fold in the paper today is, “Antenna Users Take Note”:


Three stations in the West Palm Beach/Ft. Pierce area will change frequencies this Friday, Apr. 12 as part of the FCC spectrum repack, which requires nearly 1,000 TV stations across the country to change frequencies over the next two years to make room for wireless broadband services. This means that any viewer who watches these stations through an antenna will need to rescan their TV in order to continue watching local programming.

And those radio stations are. . .
