"WBPQ-TV" "Presque Isle's CW" is the CW affiliate for Presque Isle, Maine. The call letters are fictional as the station is a cable-only station. It broadcasts exclusively on cable as part of The CW Plus, as the Presque Isle television market is ranked below 100.
Before becoming a CW affiliate, WBPQ use to be a WB affiliate via The WB 100+, branded as Presque Isle's WB. On September 18, 2006, WBPQ switched to The CW programming after UPN and The WB closed down and merged. On The CW's local station website, it lists Presque Isle as having a CW affiliate known as Presque Isle's CW. [1] At one point, it was possible for CBS affiliate WAGM-TV, which broadcasts over-the-air, to replace its secondary UPN affiliation with The CW or add it on a digtal subchannel. Those options will no longer happen as WAGM has begun airing programming from the FOX network on a digital subchannel. It now appears unlikely that WBPQ will change its fictional call letters with the new CW affiliation and a CW logo and/or website created for the station.
