WMEU-CA

WMEU-CD (branded on-air as "MeToo") is a Class A independent television station in Chicago, Illinois. It broadcasts an analog signal on UHF channel 48 and a standard definition digital signal on UHF channel 32 (virtual channel 48.1 via PSIP) from a transmitter atop the Willis Tower. Even though WMEU has a digital signal of its own, the low-powered broadcasting radius does not reach certain portions of Chicago proper or the outer suburbs. Therefore, the station can also be seen through a simulcast on WCIU-TV's fourth digital subchannel in order to reach the entire market. This signal can be seen on UHF channel 27.4 (or virtual channel 26.4 via PSIP) broadcasting from the Willis Tower transmitter.

Owned by locally-based Weigel Broadcasting, WMEU-CD is sister to fellow Weigel flagship properties, independent station WCIU-TV (channel 26) and Me-TV outlet WWME-CA (channel 23) with WMEU being an extension of the latter station's classic television programming format. All three stations share studios located on Halsted Street (between Washington Boulevard and Madison Street) in the Greektown neighborhood. The station can also be seen on RCN channel 22, AT&T U-verse channel 48, WOW! digital channel 171 and Comcast Xfinity digital channels 247 and 358. Syndicated programming featured on this station includes The Andy Griffith Show, The Nanny, All in the Family, Charlie's Angels, I Love Lucy, Frasier, Roseanne and Diff'rent Strokes.
