WPBM-CD is a class-A low-power television station that is licensed to and located in Scottsville, Kentucky, USA. WPBM broadcasts a digital signal on UHF channel 46 (virtual channel 31 via the use of PSIP)from a studio and transmitter site along US Route 31E near Barren River Lake in rural northeastern Allen County not too far from the county's northeastern boundary with Barren County. The station currently holds a partial affiliation with The Walk TV.〔(Affiliates | The WALK TV )〕 ==History== Although granted a construction permit sometime in 1982 under the callsign W07BM,〔("Digital TV Market Listing for WPBM-CD" ). RabbitEars.Info. Retrieved May 28, 2015.〕 WPBM did not go on the air until 1998 as W48BM. The station first broadcast on UHF analog channel 48 for the first two years on the air, then moved to channel 31 in 2001 as WPBM-LP,〔(WPBM TV << Our People )〕 as part of the digital television conversion. Since then, the station was branded as TV 31, Proclaim Broadcasting. WPBM discontinued its analog signal and converted to digital broadcasting in December 2009 on channel 46, but it is displayed as channel 31.1 through the use of PSIP. The current WPBM-CD call letters were adopted on June 25, 2010,〔 although viewers see the call letters as WPBM-DC. WPBM-CD is owned by Scottsville businessman and minister Marvey B. Wood and his wife, Frances. They are the sole owners of the station. Currently, in terms of religious television outlets, WPBM is the only locally based religious television station for the Bowling Green media market of any part, even though Allen County, Kentucky, where the station is based in, is considered to be in the Nashville, Tennessee media market. That is due in part of Allen County's close proximity to the Kentucky-Tennessee state line. WPBM serves at least nearby portions of both the Nashville and Bowling Green media market on both sides of the state line. Hendersonville, Tennessee-based WPGD-TV, an owned-and-operated station of the Trinity Broadcasting Network, also serves parts of southern Kentucky as the default over-the-air TBN affiliate for the area, but is a second option for religious programming. TBN previously operated WKUT-LP and WKUW-LP as translators of TBN's flagship KTBN-TV in Santa Ana, California that served parts of the Bowling Green market until they were shut down in 2010 due to very sparse financial support. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「WPBM-CD」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
