[edit] High schools

http://www.publicschoolreview.com/school_ov/school_id/39361 lists a John Glenn High, as does the German Wik. There used to be a Catholic school in Bay City. I believe it went through high school. I don't know if it still exists.

[edit] John Glenn High School

There is still a school called John Glenn High School. It is in the Bangor Township School District, which is adjacent to Bay City. The Catholic High School in Bay City is Bay City All Saints.

[edit] TV Stations

Asher196 : "WNEM is based in Saginaw and Flint:WBSF is based in Clio. "

The FCC page list the tower for WNEM being at

N 43° 28' 14.0" W 83° 50' 36.0"

and bay city is at

N 43° 35′ 42.18″ W 83° 53′ 19.1″ .(about 7'North 3'West of the tower)

Since Saginaw and Flint coordinates are

N 43° 0′ 36″ W 83° 41′ 24″,(about 28'South 9'East of the tower)

Saginaw and Flint are too far south to be the base town.

WBSF's tower is at

N 43° 28' 26.75" W 83° 50' 44.65"

bay city is about 7'South and 8" East of the tower.

and Clio, Michigan is at

N 43° 10′ 41″ W 83° 44′ 10″(about 18' south 6'East of the tower)

so Clio, Michigan is too far south as well.

This is from your source: http://wireless2.fcc.gov/UlsApp/AsrSearch/asrRegistration.jsp?regKey=111807 It shows the transmitter as being in Saginaw. Asher196 (talk) 13:32, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

I figured out my error. Saginaw's coordinates where listed wrong on the Saginaw, Michigan page. Saginaw is at 43° 25′ 48″ N, 84° 38′ 24″ W.(3'South 12'East if the tower). I fixed the listing on the Saginaw, Michigan page.R00m c (talk) 08:07, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
