WPNY-LP is the MyNetworkTV-affiliated television station for Central New York State's Mohawk Valley. Licensed to Utica, it broadcasts a low-powered analog signal on VHF channel 11 from a transmitter at studios on Smith Hill Road in Deerfield (official address is Utica). The station can also be seen on Charter Spectrum channel 12 and in 720p high definition on digital channel 1215 (however, the HD feed is cable-only). Owned by the Nexstar Media Group, WPNY is sister to Fox affiliate WFXV and ABC affiliate WUTR.
The latter is actually owned by Mission Broadcasting but operated by Nexstar through local marketing and joint sales agreements. Syndicated programming on WPNY-LP includes Dish Nation, The Jerry Springer Show, Judge Mathis and Divorce Court among others. It also simulcasts some New York Yankees games produced by the YES Network for fellow MyNetworkTV affiliate WWOR-TV in New York City.
