WBPN-LP is the low-powered, MyNetworkTV-affiliated television station for the Eastern Twin Tiers of Southern Upstate New York and Northern Pennsylvania. Licensed to Morris, New York, it airs an analog signal on VHF channel 10 from a transmitter on Ingraham Hill in the town of Binghamton. Owned by Northwest Broadcasting, WBPN is sister to Fox outlet WICZ-TV and the two stations share studios on Vestal Parkway East/NY 434 in Vestal. Syndicated programming on this television station includes 30 Rock, The Office, Family Guy, and Friends among others.
Due to its analog signal transmitting at an extremely low-power, the broadcast radius only includes the immediate areas south of the Susquehanna River North Branch and does not even reach most of the city of Binghamton. WBPN is more widely available on the second digital subchannel of WICZ. This can be seen in 720p high definition on VHF channel 8.2 (or virtual channel 40.2 via PSIP) from the same transmitter tower. WBPN is also offered on Time Warner Cable channel 8 (hence the on-air branding My 8) and in HD on digital channel 1215.
