WRDE-LD

WRDE-LD (channel 31) is a low-power television station in Salisbury, Maryland, United States, affiliated with NBC.

WRDE-LD's programming is repeated on Salisbury-licensed WRUE-LD (channel 19), with transmitter near Pocomoke City, Maryland.

(The station's over-the-air signal reaches as far north as Milford; as far east as Cape May, New Jersey; as far south as Ocean City, Maryland; and as far west as Seaford.)

For the 22 years that followed, cable and satellite systems had to rely on NBC's affiliates in Baltimore (WMAR-TV until January 1995, then WBAL-TV), Philadelphia (KYW-TV until September 1995, then network-owned WCAU), Hagerstown (WHAG-TV, now independent station WDVM-TV), and Norfolk (WAVY-TV) to carry the network's programming.

Starting in the fall of 2021, WRDE's programing began being repeated on its sister station WRUE-LD, a low-power transmitter located in Pocomoke City.

[11][3][12] In 2016, the station added a 5 p.m. newscast, WRDE News Live at 5, anchored by Anne Imanuel and Mark Edwards.

Prior to WBOC's acquisition, the station's newscasts were anchored by staff in Little Rock, Arkansas at the studios of the Independent News Network.

On October 30, 2019, WRDE launched its newscasts anchored from studios in Milton, Delaware and directed from WBOC's facilities in Salisbury, Maryland.
