The PBS 45 & 49 Instructional Television schedule wraps up for the school year on Friday, May 10. On Monday, May 13 our summer children's programming schedule begins.

PBS 45 & 49 resume 24-hour broadcast
PBS 45 & 49 will resume a 24-hour schedule beginning May 1, 2002.
The stations ceased 24-hour operations in 1992 during budget cuts and have remained off-air overnight for the past ten years. The recent installation of new transmitters, however, has brought station electricity costs down significantly, allowing us to resume 24-hour-a-day service.
During the overnight hours, PBS 45 & 49 will broadcast a combination of how-to programs and Adult Learning Service programs. For the complete schedule, visit our Web site at http://www.pbs4549.org.
