W26BS was a low-power television station licensed to serve Binghamton, New York. It was most recently a repeater that broadcast programming from the Trinity Broadcasting Network, via satellite. The station broadcast on UHF channel 26, with an application to flash-cut to digital broadcasting on the same channel.
TBN took W26BS silent March 25, 2010 due to declining support, which has been attributed to the digital transition.[1] W26BS returned to the air on April 26, 2010.[2] On April 13, 2012, TBN sold 36 of its translators, including W26BS, to Regal Media, a broadcasting group headed by George Cooney, the CEO of the EUE/Screen Gems studios.[3] In the meantime, W26BS left the air once more, on July 16, 2012, after losing the lease to its transmitter site; it will not return until after the sale to Regal Media is complete.[4]
The station's license was cancelled by the FCC on July 16, 2013.
