The Federal Communications Commission has told to the RCA that they will gave them a waiver for keeping both WJZ-TV in Baltimore, and WRC-TV in Washington, both of them were currently NBC affiliates.
A RCA-Westinghouse merger was proposed in early 1983 that they will see seven of the Westinghouse groups and five RCA/NBC groups merged together.
Westinghouse is one of the co-founders of the current owner of NBC, Radio Corporation of America in 1919. The new combined company would be called "Westinghouse-RCA".
One of the other stations Westinghouse owned are KDKA-TV in Pittsburgh, WJZD-TV in Detroit, KYW-TV in Chattanooga, WBZ-TV in Boston, WCPQ-TV in Charlotte and WLTZ-TV in Columbia.
