When did WLWT switch channels?  I worked at what once was WLWC-TV4 in 
Columbus.  The station had a short stick because of its short-spacing to co-owned 
Crosley stations in Dayton and Cincinnati.  When it was sold they eventually 
moved to WBNS's new tall tower.

Crosley sold the station in about 1976.  There was a fundraiser about this 
time of the year for IIRC the "Ruth Lyon 20-20 Club."
