WWSB
WWSB, virtual channel 40 (UHF digital channel 24), is an ABC-affiliated television station located in Sarasota, Florida, United States. The station is owned by Calkins Media. WWSB maintains studio facilities located on 10th Street in the Rosemary District of Sarasota; it also operates a news bureau in Venice, and its transmitter is located on Rutland Road (County Road 675) in the unincorporated Manatee County community of Rye, about east-southeast of Parrish.
==Broadcast coverage==
Due to this station's transmitter location and the changeover from analog to digital transmission, its coverage area expands as far north as northern Hillsborough and Polk Counties, south to Punta Gorda, and east to Avon Park and Sebring giving some over-the-air viewers a choice of two or three ABC affiliates depending on the location.
As a result, WWSB is technically a secondary ABC affiliate particularly for the eastern side of Tampa Bay, the city of Tampa itself is on the rim of WWSB's digital signal where receivable through indoor antennas. On cable, the station is the sole ABC affiliate on Comcast's Southern Sarasota County systems and it competes with Fort Myers-based WZVN-TV (also known on-air as "ABC 7") in DeSoto and Charlotte Counties and Orlando's WFTV in Hardee County. The station has faced an uphill battle gaining carriage on cable and satellite providers in some cases. While DirecTV started carrying WWSB in 2009, Dish Network did not carry the station until March 2012 but only in standard definition (it was not available in HD on Dish until late 2012). Verizon FiOS added the station to its Hillsborough and Pasco County systems in October 2006 (and eventually to its entire West Central Florida service area, as the system expanded), greatly increasing WWSB's coverage area and its overlap with WFTS-TV (channel 28);〔http://www22.verizon.com/NROneRetail/NR/rdonlyres/A6D51319-17A2-4D3D-9BF1-B060DCDA9F25/0/FLGulfCoast.pdf〕 In December 2013, non-duplication rules enforced by ABC and cable companies threatened to remove WWSB from all Verizon FiOS systems due to the presence of WFTS-TV. WFTS worked with WWSB to retain local and syndicated programming on the provider, while blocking only the duplicated network programming, allowing WWSB to remain on FiOS.
