WSCP-LP (channel 13), branded on-air as Pennsylvania Channel 13, was a low-power independent television station licensed to Bellefonte, Pennsylvania, United States, which served the State College area. The station was owned by Pathway Community Radio, Inc. WSCP-LP's transmitter was located southwest of State College on the Pine Grove Mills Mountain.
History[edit]
The station first began its broadcasting operations in 1990 as W13BY under the original ownership of George W. Kimble, however W13BY was first licensed as a station or had a construction permit on November 30, 1988.[1] At first, it was an affiliate of The Box music video network, and later a translator station of Johnstown NBC affiliate WJAC-TV (Channel 6).
In 2005, the station was purchased by Pathway Community Radio, which retransmitted Pittsburgh's WPCB-TV/Cornerstone Television (via Altoona satellite WKBS-TV) temporarily in a transition period until the station began their own programming schedule.
In 2005, the station became a Class A operation. On May 5, 2008, the station changed its call sign to WSCP-CA. On June 25, 2010, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) changed the WSCP-CA calls to DWSCP-CA possibly that the WSCP-CA broadcast license was going to be deleted.[2] About two months later on August 5, 2010, the FCC restored the WSCP-CA call sign.[3] On May 3, 2011, the station requested a change from class A to low-power status, and the station's call sign was changed to WSCP-LP.
