KCWC-TV/WyomingPBS is a full-service, public television station licensed to Central Wyoming College, Riverton, Wyoming. KCWC-TV signed on the air May 10, 1983, with approximately 16 ... See more hours of programming per day. It is a member station of PBS (Public Broadcasting Service). In addition to its PBS programming, KCWC provides local public affairs programs, travel shows and history documentaries. The station's mission is "to provide a television medium which recognizes the state's unique needs, and which informs, educates and enriches the lives of Wyoming citizens and helps them more fully understand and participate in local, national and global events that effect their lives." To this end, the station has been able to expand across Wyoming with many translaters as well as its primary stations, KCWC, KWYP and KPTW. To alleviate the confusion of various channel numbers and a multitude of call signs for each translator, since the station reaches 85% of Wyoming, KCWC-TV started using the title of "Wyoming Public Television," which more correctly reflected its statewide public television network. On January 1, 2008, the station adopted a new name: WyomingPBS.
