Local HD Newscasts coming tonight

For those of you waiting for local HD Newscasts from WKBN, WYTV and WYFX, your wait ends tonight. It was announced this morning on WYTV that WKBN will air their first HD newscast at 5pm followed by WYTV with news in HD at 5:30pm. After that, every local newscast on the CBS, ABC and Fox affiliate in the Mahoning Valley will be in High Definition. With the HD recording capabilities at the stations, I’m guesssing that the morning rebroadcasts of 27 First News on Fox Youngstown and 33 News on MyYTV will also be in HD. As of this time, MyYTV is still in Standard Definition.
