Profile CDBS |
WACP, VHF digital channel 4, is an CW television station serving Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States and southern New Jersey that is licensed to Atlantic City. The station is owned by Western Pacific Broadcast LLC. WACP maintains studios located in Millville, and its transmitter is located in Waterford Works.
Its programming features a mix of infomercials, home shopping shows and children's programming following E/I requirements outlined by the Federal Communications Commission.
On December 17, 2009, the Federal Communications Commission proposed the allotment of two VHF allocations: one on channel 4 to Atlantic City, New Jersey and another on channel 5 to Seaford, Delaware. On January 13, 2011, the FCC announced a license auction for February 15 of that year for the two VHF channel allocations. On February 26, 2011, Richland Towers-created Western Pacific Broadcast LLC won the federal auction to acquire the two full-power VHF station licenses. On May 4, 2011, the FCC granted Western Pacific Broadcast a construction permit to build a digital transmitter for the new station, using the channel 4 license. On June 23, 2011, an application was filed into the FCC to assign the "WACP" callsign to the station license. The construction permit to build the WACP transmitter was approved by the Federal Communications Commission on February 13, 2012.
