WSKG Public Telecommunications Council

The WSKG Public Telecommunications Council, Inc. (WSKG, Inc.) is a non-profit public broadcasting organization serving Central, Western, and the Southern Tier of New York State, and Northeast Pennsylvania, with offices based in Vestal (near Binghamton).

WSKG, Inc. owns and operates the following stations:

  • WSKG-TV, a PBS member station operating on virtual channel 46, digital 42; repeated in digital on WSKA-DT channel 30 in Corning, New York
  • WSKG-FM, an NPR member station, 89.3 FM, featuring news and public affairs, plus classical music
  • WSQX-FM, an NPR member station, 91.5 FM, featuring news and public affairs from NPR, Pacifica, and other sources, plus jazz music.

Due to the hilly terrain of the Southern Tier region, WSKG's radio stations are retransmitted on various repeaters and translators throughout the region. WSKG originally also had a network of low-powered television repeaters as well, but were shut down due to high costs.

WSKG, Inc. is also a license holder for WIOX, 91.3 FM, in Roxbury, New York (Delaware County).
