List of The CW affiliates (table)

This page provides a directory of television stations that are affiliated with The CW, a broadcast television network in the United States. The information is generally presented in a table format, listing details such as the station's call sign, virtual channel number, physical channel number (where applicable), city of license, market area (typically designated by Nielsen DMA), and ownership group. The table may also include notes regarding subchannels, translators, or other pertinent information about the affiliate's operation.

The list is intended to be as comprehensive and up-to-date as possible, reflecting changes in affiliations, ownership, and channel assignments. Maintaining an accurate list requires continuous monitoring of industry news and regulatory filings with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).

Typical columns included in the table:

• Call Sign: The station's unique identifier (e.g., WPIX, KDOC).
• Channel (Virtual): The channel number commonly associated with the station.
• Channel (Physical): The actual RF channel on which the station broadcasts.
• City of License: The city to which the station is officially licensed by the FCC.
• Market: The Nielsen Designated Market Area (DMA) the station serves.
• Owner: The company or organization that owns the station.
• Notes: Any relevant information about the station, such as its history, subchannel programming, or translator information.

This list excludes cable-only affiliates of The CW Plus, a programming service offered to smaller markets that do not have a full-power CW affiliate. The focus remains on over-the-air broadcast affiliates of the primary CW network. This information is valuable for researchers, media professionals, and anyone interested in the television broadcasting landscape in the United States.
