What national network is WTOC affiliated with and do they give weather reports?
WTOC-TV, channel 11, is the CBS affiliate in Savannah, Georgia (United States). Its transmitter is located in downtown Savannah. It is owned by Raycom Media. In October 1929, WTOC-AM signed on as the first radio station in the Savannah area, an enterprise of the Junior Board of Trade, a civic group that was the forerunner of the Savannah Jaycees. It was later purchased by William Knight, Jr., who later added an FM station in 1946. On February 14, 1954, Knight took a great financial risk and established WTOC-TV as the first television station in the Savannah area. WTOC radio had long been Savannah’s CBS affiliate, so WTOC-TV joined CBS and has been with that network ever since. It carried programming from all three networks for two years until WSAV-TV signed on in 1956 and took the NBC affiliation. WTOC then shared ABC with WSAV until WJCL-TV signed on in 1970. Shortly thereafter, WTOC moved it’s transmitter & antenna to a new 1500ft. tower off of Ft. Argyle Road in Southwest Chatham Co
