Profile CDBS |
WQMY is the MyNetworkTV-affiliated television station for Northeastern Pennsylvania that is licensed to Williamsport. It broadcasts a standard definition digital signal on UHF channel 29 from a transmitter on top of Bald Eagle Mountain south of the city. The station can also be seen on Service Electric channel 4 (HD on digital channel 504) and Comcast channel 8 (HD on digital channel 811). Owned by New Age Media and operated by Sinclair Broadcast Group, WQMY is sister to Fox affiliate WOLF-TV and CW affiliate WSWB (owned by MPS Media and operated through a local marketing agreement). All three share studios on SR 315 in the Fox Hill section of Plains Township.
Syndicated programming on this station includes: The People's Court, Judge Mathis and Family Feud. Although its transmitter is in Williamsport, the station is considered part of the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre market. However, its over-the-air signal does not reach those two locations. Therefore, WQMY is offered on WOLF-TV's third digital subchannel. This broadcasts on UHF channel 45.3 (channel 56.3 through PSIP) from a transmitter on Penobscot Knob near Mountain Top.
