Now sure how long, but they are broadcasting from a temporary set. They’ve been on the temporary set for a month now. Apparently the set is finished and ready to go, and the crew is training on the set, as shown in the video below. A rather quick set up, think it will be ready to go by Tuesday. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

For one, I think there’s two video walls that WCIA doesn’t have, not including the two screens next to one video wall, and the screen behind the weather center is larger. But the anchor desk side of things and the big video wall are basically the same as WCIA. Overall, nice job to Nexstar for creating, in my opinion, Rockford’s most advanced set. Far more ways to tell stories here than WIFR/WREX. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
