Revision as of 20:26, 5 September 2005 by Evice (talk | contribs)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)WSIU is a PBS member television station and a radio station that is a member of NPR and PRI. Both are located in Carbondale, Illinois at Southern Illinois University Carbondale. In addition, WSIU has a rebroadcaster for both television and radio called WUSI (on channel 16) in Olney, Illinois, and a rebroadcaster for radio called WVSI in Mount Vernon, Illinois.
WSIU-TV and WUSI-TV are unusual among televison stations, and PBS stations in particular, in that they both broadcast monophonic audio. Consequently, many viewers who live within WSIU-TV's or WUSI-TV's service areas and can receive KETC (channel 9, St. Louis) watch KETC instead. On the other hand, WUSI has an advantage over WVUT (both of which are in the Terre Haute, Indiana, market area) in that it has a stronger signal and stays on 24 hours a day (WVUT goes off the air from 11:30 PM to 7:00 AM EST).
WSIU-TV and WUSI-TV also show BBC World News, a non-PBS program, at 5:00 PM CST (the same time as BBC America).
