W43BR (which uses the false callsign of WRPQ-TV on-air to connect to its sister AM radio station) is a television station based in Baraboo, Wisconsin, United States, and is an affiliate of the Retro Television Network. It is located within Madison's television market but only serves the Baraboo and Wisconsin Dells areas. Its transmitter is located on the Baraboo Range near Devil's Lake State Park co-located with WOLX, W290AL, WRPQ, weather radio station KHA-47 and several other telecommunication services. The station is owned by Baraboo Broadcasting, which also owns WRPQ and operates Baraboo's local government access channel for Spectrum.
The signal is beamed directly north so as not to interfere with Mayville-licensed TBN station WWRS (channel 52), which transmits on digital channel 43.
W43BR has limited Spectrum cable coverage in the Baraboo/Wisconsin Dells area, along with surrounding portions of Columbia, Sauk, Adams, Juneau and western portions of Dane counties on channel 10. It is not carried in the city of Madison.
