'''Connecticut Public Television''' ('''CPTV''') is the [[PBS]] [[network affiliate#Member stations|member]] network for the U.S. state of [[Connecticut]]. It is owned by [[Connecticut Public Broadcasting]], a community-based non-profit organization that holds the [[broadcast license|licenses]] for all PBS member stations licensed in the state, and also owns the state's [[NPR]] member, Connecticut Public Radio ([[WNPR]]). Together, the television and radio stations make up the '''Connecticut Public Broadcasting Network''' ('''CPBN'''). CPBN is the state's only locally owned media organization producing TV, radio, print and Internet content for distribution across the state. As of 2019, Mark Contreras was announced as the new President / CEO. The organizational structure of CPTV also includes a [[Board of Trustees]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cpbn.org/board-trustees|title=Board of Trustees|work=Connecticut Public Broadcasting|access-date=November 1, 2015}}</ref> The network co-produced the long-running [[children's television series]], ''[[Barney & Friends]]'' until the show (alongside other [[HIT Entertainment]] programs) were transferred to [[WNET]].

==History==
The network's first station, WEDH in [[Hartford]], signed on with a [[Black and white#television|black and white]] signal in 1962, operating from a [[Trinity College (Connecticut)|Trinity College]] library basement.<ref name=CTMag>{{cite magazine|url=https://www.ctinsider.com/connecticutmagazine/article/CPTV-Celebrates-50-Years-Present-at-the-Creation-17040445.php|title=CPTV Celebrates 50 Years: Present at the Creation|last=Grandjean|first=Pat|magazine=Connecticut Magazine|date=March 31, 2013|access-date=November 14, 2022 }}</ref><ref name="cpbn our history">{{cite web |publisher=Connecticut Public Broadcasting Network |date=n.d. |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171204202237/http://cpbn.org/our-history/ |archive-date=December 4, 2017 |url=http://cpbn.org/our-history/ |title=Our History <!-- The latest https://www.ctpublic.org/about/our-history cites Wikipedia, so do not cite that as a source. -->}}</ref> It was the fourth educational television station in [[New England]], following [[WGBH-TV]] in [[Boston]], WENH-TV in [[Durham, New Hampshire]] (now part of [[New Hampshire Public Television]]), and WCBB in [[Augusta, Maine]] (now part of the [[Maine Public Broadcasting Network]]). Originally a member of [[National Educational Television]] (NET), it joined PBS upon its launch on October 4, 1970.{{Citation needed|date=November 2022}} Originally known as Connecticut Educational Television, it became Connecticut Public Television in 1967.{{Citation needed|date=November 2022}}

CPTV remained based in rented space at Trinity College until selling its headquarters back to the school for $10&nbsp;million in 2002.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.trincoll.edu/pub/Press%20Releases/CPTV.htm|title=Trinity College - Press Release|work=trincoll.edu|access-date=November 1, 2015|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131004223551/http://www.trincoll.edu/pub/Press%20Releases/CPTV.htm|archive-date=October 4, 2013}}</ref> In 2004, CPTV moved to a facility in the [[Asylum Hill, Hartford|Asylum Hill]] neighborhood of Hartford. The infrastructure of CPTV was eventually upgraded through a partnership with [[Sony]] Systems Integration Center (SIC), which enabled the delivery of [[High-definition television|HD]] quality telecommunications to subscribers.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://broadcastengineering.com/infrastructure/broadcasting_upgrading_connecticut_public |title=Upgrading Connecticut Public Broadcasting &#124; Infrastructure content from Broadcast Engineering |access-date=August 22, 2013 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131004213128/http://broadcastengineering.com/infrastructure/broadcasting_upgrading_connecticut_public |archive-date=October 4, 2013 }}</ref>

In late 2019, CPTV requested to have WEDW's [[city of license]] changed from [[Bridgeport]] to [[Stamford, Connecticut|Stamford]].<ref name="wedwstamford"/>

CPTV is a major producer of children's programming for the PBS network. Its best-known offering was ''[[Barney & Friends]]''. The character was discovered in 1991 when CPTV executive Larry Rifkin bought a ''[[Barney and the Backyard Gang]]'' home video for his daughter and was mesmerized by it. CPTV continued to distribute the show until 2007; it is now distributed by [[WNET]] in New York City. Other children's shows originated and/or distributed by CPTV are ''[[Thomas & Friends]]'', ''[[Bob The Builder]]'', ''[[Make Way for Noddy]]'', ''[[Angelina Ballerina (TV series)|Angelina Ballerina]]'', and ''[[The Saddle Club]]'' as well as the first season of ''[[SeeMore's Playhouse]]'' (the second season was distributed by [[Oregon Public Broadcasting]]).

From 1993 to 2005, ''[[M*A*S*H (TV series)|M*A*S*H]]'' star [[Alan Alda]] hosted the science series ''[[Scientific American Frontiers]]'', based on the popular magazine ''[[Scientific American]]''.<ref>{{Scientific American Frontiers| 4||Alan Alda}}</ref> That show was also produced by CPTV and aired nationwide.

Since 2002, CPTV has been working with [[HIT Entertainment]], which has helped distribute some of CPTV's children's programs. Beginning in 2008, most of CPTV's children's programming (which since 2002 have been produced with HIT Entertainment) has been presented by [[WNET]].

The network previously operated a translator in [[Waterbury]], '''W12BH''' (channel 12), which directly repeated WEDY. That station was taken off the air to allow [[WCCT-TV|WTXX]] (now WCCT-TV) to begin digital television operations. Prior to that it was on Channel 61 as '''W61AC''' from 1967 until 1979 due to launch of [[WUTH-CD|WXTV translator]].

CPTV is available on all [[cable television|cable]] systems in the state. On [[satellite television|satellite]], WEDH is available in nearly all of the state on the Hartford–New Haven [[DirecTV]] and [[Dish Network]] feeds, while WEDW is carried on the New York City DirecTV and Dish Network feeds; Stamford is part of the New York market. WEDW is also available both over-the-air and on several cable systems in portions of [[New York metropolitan area|Greater New York]], including the non-bordering states of [[New Jersey]] and [[Pennsylvania]]. Additionally, WEDH is carried by most cable systems in the [[Pioneer Valley]] of Massachusetts, providing a second choice for PBS programming alongside [[WGBY-TV]] in [[Springfield, Massachusetts|Springfield]]. Finally, WEDN has wide over-the-air and cable availability in Rhode Island, including [[Providence, Rhode Island|Providence]] (sharing the market with [[WSBE-TV]] and Boston's WGBH-TV/[[WGBX-TV]]). This gives CPTV a potential audience of 21 million people in six states, including much of Southern New England.

WEDW is currently broadcasting 480i video on RF channel 21 with CPTV programming (49.1 virtual, 25% of packets). It shares its 6&nbsp;MHz bandwidth with [[WZME]] (43.1 virtual, 720p video, 32% of packets) and [[MeTV+]] programming (43.2 virtual, 480i video, 22% of packets). 21% of transport stream packets are null packets.<ref>Rf capture of transport stream, May 2, 2022.</ref> Subchannels 49.2 and 49.3 are not currently broadcast by WEDW.

===Analog-to-digital conversion===
in 2009, leading up to the [[Digital television transition in the United States|analog-to-digital television transition]] on June 12, CPTV shut down the analog transmitters of its stations on a staggered basis. Listed below are the dates each analog transmitter ceased operations as well as their post-transition channel allocations:<ref>{{cite web|url=http://hraunfoss.fcc.gov/edocs_public/attachmatch/DA-06-1082A2.pdf |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130829004251/http://hraunfoss.fcc.gov/edocs_public/attachmatch/DA-06-1082A2.pdf |url-status=dead |archive-date=August 29, 2013 |title=DTV Tentative Channel Designations for the First and the Second Rounds |access-date=March 24, 2012 }}</ref>
* WEDH shut down its analog signal, over [[UHF]] channel 24, on June 12, 2009, the official date on which full-power television stations in the United States transitioned from analog to digital broadcasts under federal mandate. The station's digital signal remained on its pre-transition UHF channel 45, using [[virtual channel]] 24.
* WEDW shut down its analog signal, over UHF channel 49, on February 17, 2009, the original date on which full-power television stations in the United States were to transition from analog to digital broadcasts under federal mandate (which was later pushed back to June 12, 2009). The station's digital signal relocated from its pre-transition UHF channel 52, which was among the high band UHF channels (52–69) that were removed from broadcasting use as a result of the transition, to its analog-era UHF channel 49.
* WEDN shut down its analog signal, over UHF channel 53, on June 12, 2009. The station's digital signal remained on its pre-transition [[VHF]] channel 9, using virtual channel 53. 
* WEDY went off the air on July 31, 2005, as the result of equipment failure. Connecticut Public Broadcasting was granted permission by the [[Federal Communications Commission]] to temporarily keep the station off the air until repairs were completed. CPBI also petitioned the FCC to allow WEDY's analog signal to remain off the air permanently, citing the need to use available funds on the construction of its digital facilities. The station's digital signal resumed on its pre-transition VHF channel 6 on June 13, 2009,<ref name="Form387WEDY-attach">{{Cite web|url=http://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/prod/cdbs/forms/prod/getattachment_exh.cgi?exhibit_id=619393|title=Fjall Foss}}</ref> using virtual channel 65. However, most New Haven viewers kept access to PBS programming due to the high penetration of cable and satellite in the area.

On March 16, 2011, the FCC granted WEDY's petition to move from VHF channel 6 to UHF channel 41 because of viewer reception issues and interference from both [[WPVI-TV]] in Philadelphia and [[WRGB]] in [[Schenectady, New York]] (both also operate on channel 6), after those two stations implemented recent power increases.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.fcc.gov/Daily_Releases/Daily_Business/2011/db0316/DA-11-501A1.pdf|title=Press release}}</ref>

==CPBN Learning Lab==
{{external links|section|date=March 2023}}
The CPBN Learning Lab's goal is to train journalists and journalism instructors. Presently, the [[Hartford Public Schools (Connecticut)|Hartford Public Schools]] Journalism & Media Academy (JMA) receives full-time access to the facility to enhance media skills.

Since 2007, CPBN Media Lab instructors and mentors have provided real-world technical and journalism training for over 600 Connecticut students through seminars, workshops, and courses. The Media Lab has brought journalism and technical media skills training to middle school students through its ''Future Producers Academy'', ''"Media is Magic" SAND Media Enrichment Program'' and ''West Middle Media Project'' and for high school students through its ''Media 101'' and ''Young Entrepreneur'' courses in its ''Impact Academy''.

Internships are provided to undergraduate college students, often for college credit, and for recent graduates seeking to acquire technical and editorial skills.

Graduates of the CPTV college program have gone on to work in diverse media companies.

The CPBN Media Lab has been a partner with the ''[[PBS NewsHour]]'' Student Reporting Labs from their inception in 2010, serving as the professional mentor for five Connecticut high schools: Hill Regional Career High School and the [[Metropolitan Business Academy]]<ref>{{cite web |title=Metropolitan Business Academy |url=http://metropolitanbusinessacademy.org/index/ |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130312072035/http://metropolitanbusinessacademy.org/index/ |archive-date=March 12, 2013 |website=Metropolitan Business Academy}}</ref> in New Haven, Crosby High School in Waterbury, Terryville High School in Terryville and Bethel High School in Bethel. It is also the professional mentors to the PBS NewsHour Student Reporting Lab it established at America's Choice at SAND school in Hartford, one of three in the nation to work with middle school students.

Projects produced by the Media lab include:
* ''Foul Play'', a look into the use of metal bats in [[Little League Baseball]]
* ''Youth Vote'', which documents the experiences of youth voters in the 2008–2012 elections
* ''[http://cptv2.org/interview/ (I)NTERVIEW]'', a behind the scenes look into the lives of notable Connecticut celebrities
* ''Outdoor Enthusiast'', a look into Connecticut's state parks and scenic areas, launched alongside the original release of [[Ken Burns]]' series for PBS, ''[[The National Parks: America's Best Idea]]''.
