Ohio State University has sold its TV channel WPBO for $8.8 million in the FCC’s broadcast spectrum auction.

WPBO in Portsmouth serves southern Ohio and a western portion of West Virginia. It overlaps with WOUB in Athens, Ohio; WCET, Cincinnati; WKAS, Ashland, Ky.; and WVPB in Huntington, W.Va.

The station also overlaps with WOSU in Columbus, another OSU licensee, which will not be affected.

In a university announcement Friday, Tom Rieland, GM of WOSU, said the station would work with America’s Public Television Stations and PBS to ensure that viewers in the affected markets continue to receive public television content. Some 95 percent of those households get that programming from satellite and cable providers.
