WITN-DT2 is the MyNetworkTV-affiliated television station for Eastern North Carolina's Inner Banks. It is a second digital subchannel of NBC affiliate WITN-TV that is owned by Gray Television. Over-the-air, the station broadcasts a standard definition digital signal on UHF channel 32.2 (or virtual channel 7.2 via PSIP) from a transmitter along NC 118 in Grifton. WITN-DT2 can also be seen on Time Warner Cable digital channel 121, Suddenlink digital channel 138, and Charter digital channel 198. Syndicated programming on the station includes The Middle, Cash Cab, The People's Court, and Divorce Court among others. Its parent station has studios on East Arlington Boulevard in Greenville.
Originally, WITN-DT2 served as a 24-hour local weather channel. It picked up MyNetworkTV on September 28, 2009 after the area's Ion Television owned-and-operated affiliate WEPX-TV (and its full-time satellite, WPXU-TV) dropped the programming service. At that point, local weather programming was reduced to overnights and mornings while syndicated offerings made up the rest of WITN-DT2's schedule. A further addition to that service occurred April 18, 2011 when it added Me-TV and dropped all remaining weather-related programming with the new network taking up most of the weekend and daytime schedule.
