Description

When the Southwest's first TV signal shot from WBAP-TV's tower three years ago, a scant 400 antennas reach up to introduce television to a small audience. Now a forest of antennas stretches skyward, hauling down morning to night entertainment for an audience of nearly 500,000 viewers in 136,000 homes in a 16-county area surrounding Fort Worth.
