39.5

PBS Fort Wayne Wx

Our fifth channel, a 24/7 Weather Radar information channel known as PBS Fort Wayne WX, began broadcasting at 12:01am July 1, 2019 on broadcast channel 39.5. Prior to this, our region did not have a live, free over-the-air weather channel providing this vital public service to area viewers.
PBS Fort Wayne WX shares local and national. global satellite views, screens with daily forecasts plus other climatic information visually along with National Weather Service Audio from the regional office in North Webster, Indiana.
While this channel is currently available to area viewers using standard broadcast (over-the-air antenna television), it is hoped that soon, cable providers and other pay TV services such as Comcast/Xfinity, Frontier, Time/Warner and others will add this public service channel to their lineup, even though they are not obligated to do so.
