WTRF-DT2 is the MyNetworkTV-affiliated television station for the Northern Panhandle of West Virginia and the Allegheny Plateau of Eastern Ohio, branded as My Ohio Valley. It is a second digital subchannel of CBS affiliate WTRF-TV which is owned by Nexstar Media Group. Over-the-air, the station broadcasts a digital signal on VHF channel 7.2 from a transmitter in Bridgeport, Ohio. On cable, WTRF-DT2 is carried on Comcast channel 12. WTRF-DT2's parent station has studios on 16th Street in Downtown Wheeling. Syndicated programming on the subchannel includes Everybody Loves Raymond, Two and a Half Men, Family Guy, and Maury.
WTRF-DT2 signed-on in 2007 as a Fox and secondary MyNetworkTV affiliate. Previously, WPGH-TV out of nearby Pittsburgh served the market as the de facto affiliate. However, it is still widely available over-the-air and on cable in the area. The following year, the subchannel was joined by WTRF-DT3 as an ABC affiliate, thus providing the tiny Wheeling/Steubenville market with affiliates of all four major networks.
