WNNE was originally a Hartford station and was previously linked with WPTZ as a fulltime satellite to broadcast in Upper Connecticut River Valley of East-Central Vermont and West-Central New Hampshire. It would air the same schedule as its parent WPTZ. Most of the channel’s operations including Master Control were controlled from Plattsburg.
