 At the time, much of this region was among the few areas in the United States where cable was still not readily available.CBS did not return over-the-air to this area until Toccoa's WNEG-TV (channel 32, now WGTA) joined CBS the following August.Although it was located in the Greenville–Spartanburg–Asheville market, WNEG served as the "de facto" CBS affiliate for the far northern portion of the Atlanta market as well as the Greenville–Spartanburg–Asheville market's western fringes until that station's sale to the University of Georgia in 2008.
