WASA-LD
WASA-LD (channel 24) is a low-power television station licensed to Port Jervis, New York, United States, serving the New York City area with programming from the Spanish-language network Estrella TV. The station is owned by Estrella Media, and its transmitter is located atop One World Trade Center in lower Manhattan. WASA briefly used virtual channel 64 to match its former analog channel number, then later changed its virtual channel to 24.

In April 2009, Venture Technologies, owner of WASA-LD, said it would sell the station to Burbank, California–based Liberman Broadcasting (which was renamed Estrella Media in February 2020, following a corporate reorganization of the company under private equity firm HPS Investment Partners, LLC) for $6 million, making New York the sixth market served b ...
