In honor of the 30th anniversary of the Hicksville, New York native's breakthrough album The Stranger, ETPtv presents the U.S. broadcast premiere of Billy Joel's 1978 British concert debut -- a live television performance on The Old Grey Whistle Test. During the appearance, the legendary singer/songwriter played a set of now-classic hits, including "Only the Good Die Young," "Movin' Out," "She's Always a Woman" and "Just the Way You Are," which earned 1978 Grammy Awards for Record of the Year and Song of the Year.


East Tennessee Public Television experienced the failure of our analog transmitter WKOP, channel 15 in Knoxville, Tennessee on June 24, 2008. Due to the extreme cost to repair the transmitter and the future termination of analog transmission in February of 2009, the Federal Communications Commission has granted permission to terminate the analog operations of WKOP.

You can continue to receive the same quality programming, twenty-four hours a day, on WKOP digital channel 15. If you receive your television signal using an antenna and have an analog television set you will need a 
digital-to-analog converter box. These converter boxes are available at area electronic retailers. A government coupon is available to offset some of the cost. Thank you for your continued support of East Tennessee Public Television.
