WSWB - Overview

Overview

Although it operates its own over-the-air signal, this cannot be received in many parts of the Wilkes-Barre area. Therefore, the station can also be seen on WOLF-TV's second digital subchannel. This broadcasts on UHF channel 45.2 (channel 56.2 PSIP) from a transmitter on Penobscot Knob near Mountain Top. NextEra Energy Resources operates a digital replacement translator on UHF channel 36 that is licensed to Waymart with a transmitter in Forest City. It exists because windmills run by NextEra at the Waymart Wind Farm interfere with the transmission of full-power television signals.
