WPEN-LP was a low-powered television station serving the Hampton Roads television market broadcasting on Channel 68, later moved to channel 47 as W47CE.
The station also had two repeaters:
- W51BH, Gloucester, Virginia
- W62CN, Norfolk, Virginia
Former cable channel positions:
- 62, Hampton Roads, Virginia (Cox Cable)
- 25, Chesapeake, Virginia (TCI/Cox Cable)
Originally, WPEN carried General Entertainment TV Programming and later picked up MTV2 and, before that, The Box.
WPEN-LP and its translators signed off in 2002—currently, their licenses have been deleted from the active FCC database, and no known channel or call letter has been reassigned to them.
WPEN-LP was not related to the Philadelphia radio station WPEN (now WKDN).
