WOSU-TV (channel 34, digital channel 36) is an American television station located in Columbus, Ohio. It is the PBS member in Columbus. The Ohio State University also operates satellite WPBO in Portsmouth, Ohio, which simulcasts WOSU-TV. WPBO-TV broadcasts on analog channel 42, serving the western edge of the Huntington-Charleston, West Virginia market area.
WOSU-TV first signed on the air on February 20, 1956. In 1959, a grant from the Ford Foundation allowed the station to purchase the first video tape recorder in Ohio. WOSU-TV began broadcasting in color in 1968, telecasting the football game between Ohio State and Michigan. The color telecast help to popularize the UHF band in Columbus.
In 1972, the station moved to a new facility, the Fawcett Center for Tomorrow, on the banks of the Olentangy River near (now on) the campus of the Ohio State University. WPBO-TV began broadcasting in Portsmouth on January 4, 1974. The stations began broadcasting in stereo in 1986; WOSU-TV was the first in Columbus to do so. In September 2006, WOSU opened a digital media center in partnership with the COSI Columbus science museum. The WOSU@COSI project is considered a national model for public broadcast partnerships. The production facility includes broadcast studios, edit suites, a conference suite, offices, the WOSU mediaLab and digital exhibits. WOSU raised $5.6 million to build and equip the all digital facility. The Fawcett Center continues to house WOSU's primary radio complex, business and administration offices and television master control. WOSU also possesses an extensive archive of films and public programming video materials.
