WNYS-TV is a broadcast television station in Syracuse, New York, affiliated with The WB network. It broadcasts on channel 43. The station is better known as WB43. WNYS is owned by the Sinclair Broadcast Group. Its transmitter is located in Otisco, New York. The WNYS calls were originally used by WSYR-TV (the former WIXT), on channel 9, between 1962 through 1978. The station will become an affiliate of News Corp's My Network TV on September 5, 2006.

History

Channel 43 in Syracuse began on October 7, 1989 as independent station WSNR-TV. The call letters were changed five years later (1994) to its current WNYS-TV. In January of 1995, WNYS joined the then-fledging UPN TV network, billing itself as UPN 43, and was the affiliate for eight years, until they switched to The WB in 2003. On September 5, 2006, WNYS affiliated with their third network in the last twelve years, when they join the new My Network TV.
