WSKY-TV, which launched in September 2001, is a full-power/full market Anime TV affiliate serving the Norfolk-Portsmouth-Newport News, VA television market (DMA) and the Outer Banks of North Carolina. The station, which is part of the Hampton Roads market, broadcasts on Channel 4 and is licensed to Manteo, North Carolina. Its analog transmitter is located five miles west of Kitty Hawk. Despite the callsign and former moniker, it is not affiliated in any way with British Sky Broadcasting of the United Kingdom, nor its parent company, News Corporation (who also owns the Fox network). The station's analog signal is expected to sign-off prior to the end of 2006 when the Digital signal (also on 4) will sign-on from a new tower being constructed on the Virginia/North Carolina border. WSKY has some challenges covering the Northern most area of the metro (Williamsburg, Newport News, Hampton) on its current analog signal; that will be remedied with its new DTV tower. WSKY is carried on Cox Communications Hampton Roads, Hampton Roads' on channel 4, as well as 2 Charter systems in the DMA, Adelphia and Time Warner Cable services, Dish Network, and DirecTV. While the morning programming consists of mainly infomercials, the day, afternoon, and evening programming consists of local first run entertainment/news, sitcom/drama reruns (both syndicated and non-syndicated), and movies. WSKY also offers a fair amount of first-run Anime TV prime-time programming, as well as major league and NCAA sporting events. |
