I don't know of any cities in the US called Potsdam that are big enough to have a PBS station. Doesn't mean there aren't any, I guess.
The reason I thought it might be WGBH (aka W God Bless Harvard, which is why I can remember their letters [g]) is that the Boston PBS station is sort of the flagship PBS station -- most of the big shows, including Masterpiece Theater, originate out of it, although they get broadcast all over the country. The NY, DC, and SF stations do a fair amount of programming, too, but I can't remember their call letters, and besides, the Boston station is closer to you geographically. I know that doesn't matter on a technical level, but the CBC affiliate I get on my cable is the Vancouver one, so it may matter to TPTB in other ways.
Speaking of MT, did you watch The Amazing Mrs. Pritchard?
