WSTM-TV is the NBC- affiliated television station for Central Upstate New York that is licensed to Syracuse. It originally signed on the air as WSYR-TV on VHF channel 3 on February 15, 1950. Its call letters changed to WSTM in 1980, and its original call letters were assigned to WIXT channel 9 in 2005. It broadcasts a high definition digital signal on UHF channel 24 (or virtual channel 3.1 via PSIP) from a transmitter in the town of Onondaga. Owned by the Sinclair Broadcast Group, the station is sister to low-powered CW affiliate WSTQ-LP and CBS affiliate WTVH. However, the latter is actually owned by the Granite Broadcasting Corporation but operated by Sinclair through joint sales and shared services agreements. All three outlets share studios together on James Street/ NY 290 in the Near Northeast section of Syracuse.
