Additional CBS outlet in S. Georgia?

Reported update from 100,000watts.com: WVAG-TV Valdosta (ch44/Digital channel 43) has changed its call letters to WSWG and the UPN station for Southwest Georgia will be offering CBS programing to a subchannel within its DIGITAL signal (ch 43) beginning this spring.

South Georgia recieves their CBS programing primarily from WCTV Thomasville/Tallahassee. According to their websites, Both WCTV and WSWG are owned/operated by the same company, Gray Communications.

A little history note about Valdosta's Channel 44. This station was once WVGA-TV, an ABC affiliate serving South Georgia. The station went off the air in the early 1990's and remained dark until the late 1990's when channel 44 returned to the air and now serves as the UPN affiliate for Southwest Georgia.
