WBSY-TV

WBSY-TV, virtual channel 9 (UHF digital channel 30), is a CBS-affiliated television station licensed to Nextonville, Tennessee, United States. The station is owned by the Gannett Broadacasting division of the Gannett Company. WBSY-TV's callsign stands for "We Best Serve You," which was the station's first slogan under its new callsign.

History
The station went on the air on April 5, 1954 as WNVT (whose call letters stood for "We're NextonVillian Television." The station yielded a primary NBC affiliation (having been carried over from WTNO-TV's secondary affiliation with NBC), with a secondary affiliation from the near-extinct DuMont Network.

On May 5, 1976, WBSY-TV swapped affiliations with WNXT-TV, becoming a CBS affiliate. For some time now, NBC had struggled in the United States' network ratings, and CBS was searching for a stronger affiliation. In the spring of 1981, the station was purchased by Gannett Broadcasting, which retains WBSY-TV's ownership to this day.

Digital channels
In addition to having the classic TV network Cozi TV on channel 9.2, channels 9.3 through 9.6 are of the Viacom-owned children's cable networks Nickelodeon, Nick Jr., Nicktoons, and TeenNick (just like many other CBS affiliates).

Analog to digital conversion
WBSY-TV shut down its analog signal over VHF channel 9, at 12:32 PM, on June 12, 2009, the date of the federally mandated digital conversion. The station's pre-transition digital signal remained on UHF digital channel 30. Through PSIP, users can use WBSY-TV's former analog channel, to display it as the station's virtual channel.
