WLNY is an independent television station primarily serving the Long Island section of New York state, licensed to Riverhead, NY, with studios in Melville.
TV 55 signed on the air in 1985 under the call letters WLIG. The calls were changed in the mid 1990s to WLNY.
Programming
The station currently carries mostly old movies and shows distributed by King World. They are also seen on cable in New York City, parts of New York state, and New Jersey. However, those areas see a separate feed due to SyndEx laws (similar to the old WOR EMI Service and Superstation WGN), except for subscribers in the metro New York City market who receive the station on DirecTV and Dish Network, both of which carry the same clean feed seen on Long Island.
WLNY produces a weekday local news program which airs at 11 PM and is rebroadcast Tuesday through Saturday at 5 AM.
