WRLH (New Hampshire)

[4] By August, the call letters WRLH (for White River, Lebanon, and Hanover) had been selected, and an affiliation with NBC had been announced.

[6] WRLH finally went on air on September 10, 1966, with studios atop Crafts Hill at the transmitter site and business offices in West Lebanon, New Hampshire.

[1] In 1969, the FCC granted a transfer of control of the dormant station to Johnson and Whitman Communications, whose stockholders owned 50 percent of a commercial printing firm in Canaan, New Hampshire.

[15] In 1973, the other owners ousted McQueen and Nixon as managers, and they soon sold their stock back to the attorneys, William Baker and Ridler Page.

[17] On September 23, 1975, a public auction ordered by a bank sounded WRLH's final "death knell" and served as a "daylong requiem" for the venture as the station's equipment was sold in parts to the highest bidder.
