WVII-TV, virtual and VHF digital channel 7, is an ABC-affiliated television station licensed to Bangor, Maine, United States, serving Central and Eastern Maine. Owned by Rockfleet Broadcasting, it is a sister station to low-power Fox affiliate WFVX-LD (channel 22). The two stations share studios on Target Industrial Circle in West Bangor; WVII's transmitter is located on Black Cap Mountain along the Penobscot and Hancock county line. The station is also seen in high definition on the second digital subchannel of WFVX-LD.
WVII-TV serves as the default ABC affiliate through cable for the Presque Isle market, as that area does not have an ABC affiliate of its own.
