Combined "Pittsburgh market stations serving the area as default affiliates" and "Pittsburgh market stations imported to cable" to "Pittsburgh market stations serving the area" since Pittsburgh stations are easily receivable with roof top over the air antennas in most locations throughout the market. Stations "imported to cable" are stations usually received via microwave because the station is not receivable in the area, in this case the Pittsburgh stations are received by the cable companies via conventional antennas that anyone can use to receive them.

Changed "Youngstown market stations imported to cable" to "Youngstown market stations received in area" since these stations too can be easily received with roof top over the air antennas in some areas.

As an aside comment the digital counterparts of the Pittsburgh and Youngstown stations are more easily received than their old analog channels. Bryan27 22:37, 10 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I mean, the areas are only 39 miles apart, maybe at the least consider them "adjacent locals". This is just a suggestion, and I'm open to all comments Tcflightyears93 (talk) 21:23, 12 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
