WNEU (channel 60) is a television station licensed to Merrimack, New Hampshire, United States, serving as the Boston-area outlet for the Spanish-language network Telemundo.
WNEU and WBTS-CD, along with co-owned regional cable news channel New England Cable News (NECN) and regional sports network NBC Sports Boston, share studios at the NBCU Boston Media Center on B Street in Needham, Massachusetts, with WNEU's transmitter in the same city, off Cedar Street.
[7] Paxson Communications purchased WGOT from Paugus for $3.05 million on May 17, 1995,[8][9] and switched the station to a mix of infomercials and religious programming, as an affiliate of the Infomall TV Network (or inTV).
[19][20] In September 2002, NBC agreed to acquire WPXB from Paxson for $26 million, with the intention of making channel 60 an owned-and-operated station of its Telemundo network.
[27] During this time, WNEU effectively served as a full-power satellite of WTMU-LP,[28] even though channel 60 was promoted as the main station.
[39] In September 2016, NBCUniversal agreed to acquire WTMU-LP (subsequently renamed WBTS-LD)—WNEU's low-power translator in Needham, Massachusetts, which the company said would factor into its plan to broadcast the new service over-the-air into Boston.
In the early 1990s, WGOT aired a New Hampshire-oriented prime time newscast at 10 p.m. that was anchored by current NHDOT spokesperson Bill Boynton.
NBC concurrently announced that the newscasts would be simulcast on WRDM-CD in Hartford, Connecticut (along with Springfield repeater WDMR-LD), which they acquired from ZGS Communications in February 2018; a reporter based at WRDM's facilities at the WVIT studios in West Hartford files stories from Connecticut (outside of the WNJU-covered Fairfield County) and the Pioneer Valley.
[51] WRIW-CD in Providence, Rhode Island began simulcasting WNEU's newscasts on July 20, 2018, after NBC completed its acquisition of that station from ZGS.
