WENY-DT3 is the CW+-affiliated television station for the Central and Western Twin Tiers of Southern Upstate New York and Northern Pennsylvania. It is a third digital subchannel of ABC affiliate WENY-TV that is owned by Lilly Broadcasting. Over-the-air, the station broadcasts a 16:9 standard definition widescreen digital signal on UHF channel 36.3 from a transmitter on Higman Hill in Corning. WENY-DT3 can also be seen on Time Warner Cable channel 2 (hence the on-air branding Twin Tiers CW 2) and in 720p high definition on digital channel 1212 (however, the HD feed is cable-only). Its parent station has studios on Old Ithaca Road in Horseheads along NY 13.
This television outlet originally served as the market's WB affiliate. It was part of cable-exclusive service The WB 100+, and as a result, used the call sign "WBE" (referring to The WB Elmira) in a fictional manner. In partnership with The WB 100+, ABC affiliate WENY provided operational and advertising services for this station.
