WYTU-LD (channel 63) is a low-power television station in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, United States, affiliated with the Spanish-language network Telemundo. Owned by Weigel Broadcasting (as the company's only Telemundo affiliate), it is sister to CBS affiliate WDJT-TV (channel 58), Class A MeTV owned-and-operated station WBME-CD (channel 41) and Racine-licensed independent station WMLW-TV (channel 49). The stations share studios in the Renaissance Center office complex on South 60th Street in West Allis (with a Milwaukee postal address); WYTU-LD's transmitter is located in Milwaukee's Lincoln Park (next to the transmitter belonging to ABC affiliate WISN-TV, channel 12).
Due to WYTU's low-power status, its broadcasting radius does not reach all of southeastern Wisconsin. Therefore, the station can also be seen through a 16:9 widescreen standard definition simulcast on WDJT-TV's fourth digital subchannel in order to reach the entire market. This relay signal can be seen on channel 58.4 from the same Lincoln Park transmitter facility. WYTU is also relayed on WFBN-LD (channel 35.2) in Rockford, Illinois, and WMYS-LD (channel 69.2) in South Bend, Indiana.
The station airs all of Telemundo's schedule, along with Spanish-language coverage of Sunday afternoon Milwaukee Brewers baseball home games, using camera positions shared with Bally Sports Wisconsin. WYTU-LD is also available via Dish Network and Charter Spectrum's systems throughout their entire state service area as far west as La Crosse and as far north as Bayfield,[3] making for a rare example of an intra-region superstation in the digital age.
