CFWH-TV
Former television station in Whitehorse, Yukon, Canada
CFWH-TV was the television call sign for the CBC's television station in Whitehorse, Yukon. Commencing transmissions on November 26, 1968, it was one of ultimately six Frontier Coverage Package stations in the Yukon; satellite delivery of colour television began on February 5, 1973. It was a part of the CBC North television system.
Prior to the launch of CFWH-TV and for several years thereafter, Whitehorse's WHTV cable TV system (now part of Northwestel Cable) carried a mix of prerecorded CBC, CTV and syndicated programs on Channel 4 on its system,[1] offered up to two weeks after their initial broadcasts on stations in southern Canada.[2]
