WNSC-TV and WNSC-FM (88.9) are public broadcasting stations in Rock Hill, South Carolina. WNSC-TV's digital signal is on channel 15 (however, the channel maps via PSIP to the station's former analog channel 30). WNSC-DT is carried on cable channel 15 throughout most of the Charlotte, North Carolina, television market. The stations' studios are on the campus of York Technical College, and their transmitting tower is five miles south of Rock Hill (at 34° 50' 23.00" North Latitude, 81° 01' 6.00" West Longitude).
WNSC-TV went on the air on January 3, 1978. It is a member of the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) and South Carolina Educational Television (SCETV). It was the sixth full-power SCETV station, and the third public TV station to serve the Charlotte area, after WTVI (channel 42) in Charlotte and UNC-TV's WUNG-TV (channel 58) in Concord, North Carolina. Previously, South Carolina ETV programming had been seen in the Rock Hill area via a low-power translator station on Channel 55 (which is now occupied by WMYT-TV). WNSC-TV completed its transition from analog to digital television on the original national transition date at midnight on February 18, 2009 (along with all other SCETV stations).
WNSC-TV originates some local programming, including Piedmont Politics, and also carries national and statewide programs from PBS and SCETV. Its digital subchannels carry the South Carolina Channel and ETV World.
