[edit] History

WBCC began on June 18, 1987 as WRES on channel 18. In 1992, the station changed its call letters to the current WBCC and swapped channel positions with commercial WKCF, moving to channel 68. It was originally an educational independent, but this ended on January 1, 2002, when the station became a PBS member station, showing some limited programming from the network. By that April, renovations began to accommodate WBCC-DT channel 30, which took to the air on November 4, 2003.^[2]
