WAQP

Subchannels

The station's signal is multiplexed:

Analog-to-digital conversion

WAQP ended regular programming on its analog signal, over UHF channel 49, on June 12, 2009, the official date on which full-power television stations in the United States transitioned from analog to digital broadcasts under federal mandate. The station's digital signal remained on its pre-transition UHF channel 48,^[3][4] using virtual channel 49. Its physical channel was later moved to 36.

Translators

WAQP previously operated a rebroadcaster on channel 27 in Lansing, which uses the callsign WLNM-LD. That channel was originally W69BJ (channel 69), but it relocated to channel 27 as W27CN in November 2003. Since July 2009, WLNM-LD has been broadcasting in digital-only format. The WLNM-LD digital broadcast uses the station's former analog channel 27 number, both in actual channel designation and via PSIP display, and mirrored the main WAQP broadcast. On February 14, 2020, TCT agreed to sell WLNM-LD to Gray Television for $175,000;^[5] the sale, which was completed on May 1,^[6] includes a lease agreement allowing TCT to program a WLNM subchannel for five years after closing (it was placed on the station's seventh subchannel).^[7] WLNM-LD now operates as a translator of NBC affiliate WILX-TV (channel 10), and WILX-DT7 also carries TCT throughout the entire market as a side effect of the transaction.

WAQP also originally had a repeater serving Jackson, W59CA (channel 59), which was relocated to Ann Arbor in November 2000 and renamed W27CJ (channel 27), repeating a low-power TCT station in Detroit, WDWO-CD. In October 2007, W27CJ was sold to SMG Media Group for $80,000, with the intent on operating the channel as "WFHD-LP"; that station, however, would soon go silent altogether.
