Connecticut’s WFSB Going HD

Published by admin on February 25, 2011. 0 Comments

WFSB is finally making the high-definition transition.  According to The Hartfordite and our friends at The Laurel, channel 3 has been in the process of updating its equipment and cameras.  The station hopes to complete the transition by late spring or early summer.  This announcement comes after a litany of minor changes have been made in preparation for the upgrade.

Crosstown rivals WTNH and WVIT are already broadcasting in high definition, but WFSB is still wildly successful in the ratings book without it.
