>From Scott Fybush's Northeast Radio Watch: "And we note the passing of a Keystone State broadcaster whose controversial actions provoked a lawsuit that will be studied by constitutional law scholars for many decades to come. The Rev. John Harden Norris owned a small empire of religious stations in Red Lion, near York - WGCB (1440), WGCB-FM (96.1), WGCB-TV (Channel 49) and shortwave station WINB.
<edit> "Norris had founded WGCB(AM) with his father, the Rev. John M. Norris, in 1950, adding the FM signal in 1958, followed by WINB in 1962 and WGCB-TV in 1979. The radio stations were sold in the late nineties (they're now in secular hands under Cumulus, as WGLD and WSOX-FM), but Norris remained president of WINB and WGCB-TV until his death last Sunday (Sept. 28). Norris was 88." I have never WINB up in Allentown, but perhaps those further afield might want to keep an eye on its frequency(ies) (is it even still on now?) for changes.
