Cable and Satellite Carriage
On cable, WSLS can be seen as far south into Yanceyville, North Carolina, as far east as Clarksville, as far west as Marion and as far north as Harrisonburg, Staunton and Snowshoe, West Virginia. Shentel Cable in Franklin, West Virginia dropped WSLS at some point in 2009. Sometime in the late 2000s, Comcast in Harrisonburg added WSLS to digital cable, which at one time may have been on the main tier cable lineup.
WSLS and all of the Roanoke stations are carried on DirecTV in Patrick County due to Nielsen placing the county in the Greensboro/High Point/Winston-Salem market. It was always a part of the Roanoke market for many years which now faces 50% viewership between Roanoke and Triad television stations. WSLS is also carried out of market for North Carolina DirecTV viewers in the counties of Caswell and Rockingham.

Famous quotes containing the words cable, satellite and/or carriage:
“To be where little cable cars climb halfway to the stars.”
—Douglass Cross (b. 1920)
“Books are the best things, well used; abused, among the worst. What is the right use? What is the one end, which all means go to effect? They are for nothing but to inspire. I had better never see a book, than to be warped by its attraction clean out of my own orbit, and made a satellite instead of a system.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“An earthly dog of the carriage breed;
Who, having failed of the modern speed,
Now asked asylum and I was stirred
To be the one so dog-preferred.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
