WTNC-LD (channel 26) is alow-power television station licensed toRaleigh, North Carolina, United States, broadcasting the Spanish-languageUniMás network to theResearch Triangle region. It isowned and operated byTelevisaUnivision alongsideFayetteville-licensedUnivision stationWUVC-DT (channel 40). The two stations share studios on Falls of Neuse Road in Raleigh; WTNC-LD's transmitter is located on Rose of Sharon Road inDurham.
Although WTNC-LD identifies as a separate station in its own right, it is officially licensed as atranslator of WUVC-DT. In addition to its own digital signal, WTNC-LD issimulcast inhigh definition on WUVC-DT's seconddigital subchannel (40.2) from a transmitter northeast ofBroadway, North Carolina. WUVC-DT, in turn, is simulcast on WTNC-LD's second digital subchannel.
The station originally signed on in early 1997 as W59CR from a tower near the corner ofNC 98 andUS 70 By-Pass in East Durham. Broadcasting then on channel 59, the station rebroadcast WACN-LP (channel 34) fromApex, a Christian TV station. The call letters changed to WIWW-LP in late 1997.
WhenWUNC-TV needed UHF channel 59 for digital, WIWW vacated the channel for UHF 26 on theWNCU tower off Rose of Sharon Road in northwest Durham. It washome shopping for a while, then dark, then Telefutura (now UniMás).
In 2007, WTNC began simulcasting as a digital subchannel of sister station WUVC-TV in Fayetteville and other southern regions of the viewing area. In 2010, WTNC switched to digital broadcasting.
