Profile CDBS |
WQTV-LP is a low-powered television station licensed to Murray, Kentucky, United States. It broadcasts an analog signal on UHF channel 24 from a transmitter on Midway Road, along U.S. 641, in unincorporated Calloway County. WQWQ-LP is a low-powered television outlet in Paducah, Kentucky. This station broadcasts an analog signal on VHF channel 9 from a transmitter in Farley along the Clarks River. Together, the two stations serve as the primary CW and secondary MeTV affiliate for Western Kentucky's Jackson Purchase, Southeastern Missouri, and Southern Illinois.
Owned by Raycom Media, WQTV and WQWQ are sister stations to the CBS affiliate KFVS-TV and share studios in the Hirsch Tower, on Broadway Avenue, in downtown Cape Girardeau, Missouri. For identification purposes, it is the WQWQ call sign that is used in the logo even though WQTV has more broadcasting power and was the first of the two stations to sign-on.
