I am working on a page that will have street/mailing addresses ("snail mail") and other info on these channels. It is not yet complete. What is available of it is at http://www.oocities.org/loisnotlane/tv.html
Meanwhile, there's an interesting web site full of news on area TV and radio stations, Ohio Valley Radio and TV, at http://www.oocities.org/ovrtv/ I have no ties to this one, but I've used it quite a bit, since it links to all the local broadcast TV and radio stations and has other news and links about the media.
