WPTV-TV (channel 5) is a television station in West Palm Beach, Florida, United States, affiliated with NBC. It is owned by the E. W. Scripps Company alongside WHDT (channel 9), an independent station licensed to Stuart, and operated with Gray Media–owned Fox affiliate WFLX (channel 29). The stations share studios on Banyan Boulevard in downtown West Palm Beach; WPTV-TV's transmitter is located along US 441 southwest of West Palm Beach. Channel 5 began broadcasting as WJNO-TV on August 22, 1954. It broadcast from a former greenhouse in Palm Beach and was the first VHF television station in the area. The station was sold to John Phipps in 1956, becoming WPTV, and to Scripps in 1961. It moved its studios to West Palm Beach in 1971, relocating to its present site in 2001. An NBC affiliate from the outset, WPTV has spent much of its history as the news ratings leader in the market, though in the 2020s, WPBF has challenged it and surpassed it in some time periods.
