WSEE-TV

WSEE-TV (channel 35) is a television station in Erie, Pennsylvania, United States, affiliated with CBS and The CW Plus.

Until 2017, WSEE-TV was simulcast in standard definition on WICU-TV's third digital subchannel on virtual channel 12.3 from a separate transmitter in Greene Township;[2][3][4][5] this was dropped on May 29, 2017, in favor of Ion Television.

An upgraded multiplexer allowed the restoration of the WSEE simulcast to WICU on January 24, 2018, this time on 12.4, in 720p high definition; it was dropped again in March 2019 in favor of Start TV.

Price sold WSEE along with three of its stations (WAPT in Jackson, Mississippi; WZZM in Grand Rapids, Michigan; and WNAC-TV in Providence, Rhode Island) to Northstar Television Group in 1989.

For one year starting in March 2009, a special feed of WSEE-DT2 (incorrectly identified on-air as "WBEP-DT2 Northwest Pennsylvania CW") was aired in the portions of Cattaraugus County, New York, served by Atlantic Broadband.

This special feed replaced the first run of the prime time news at 10 p.m. with a replay of WICU-TV's weeknight show seen earlier at 6 p.m.

It retained the show's branding (as made obvious by the lack of current conditions during weather forecasts) despite the actual operation.

The studios were unable to air two live broadcasts at the same time until a second high-definition production control room was added.

Sister station WICU-TV airs a midday show weekdays at 12:30 p.m. following WSEE-TV's long-running noon newscast.

In cases of breaking news, severe weather, or election coverage, the two simulcast newscasts and occasionally include the CW subchannel as well.

On weekday mornings, WSEE-DT2 provides a simulcast of the first hour of WICU's 12 News Today at 5 p.m. and the NBC affiliate's midday show at 12:30 p.m..

[11] The station's signal is multiplexed: WSEE-TV is available on some cable systems in Canada that serve communities on Lake Erie.

WSEE-TV has been based out of WICU's facility since the summer of 2009.
