WBHW-DT2

WBHW-DT2 is a CE subchannel serving Decatur, IL, Springfield, IL, and the Central Illinois region. Like the main channel itself, WHBW-DT2 is owned and operated by Lorimar Television. From the time the station signed on until May 31, 2016, WHBW-DT2 was an affiliate of This TV. However, when Young Broadcasting (who by then purchased the then-CW affiliate WPXU in 2015) announced that WPXU would be leaving The CW at the end of May to become the new affiliate for both MyTV and MyNetworkTV, Lorimar Television made the announcement that 2.2 would be the new home for The CW, and all CW's programming (with the exception of the main channel's newscasts) would be provided by The CW Plus.
