WCSP

WCSP (channel 20) is a television station licensed to Springfield, Illinois, United States, affiliated with Central. The station is owned by Gray Television and maintains studios on East Cook Street in Springfield's Eastside; its transmitter is located west of Mechanicsburg, in unincorporated Sangamon County.
WCCD (channel 15) in Champaign–Urbana operates as a semi-satellite of WCSP. As such, it simulcasts all network and syndicated programming as provided through WCSP, and the two stations share a website. However, WCCD airs separate commercial inserts and legal identifications. Local newscasts, produced by WCSP, are simulcast on both stations. WCSP serves the western half of the Central Illinois market while WCCD serves the eastern portion. The two stations are counted as a single unit for ratings purposes. Although WCCD maintains its own studios on South Country Fair Drive in downtown Champaign, master control and most internal operations are based at WCSP' facilities.
