WNAC in Providence, Rhode Island, is putting MyNetworkTV on a digital channel, B&C reports.

Besides the regular MyNet fare, viewers will also get other syndicated programming as well as some local shows and local sports.

The station is owned by LIN Broadcasting, who may repeat the move in other cities, the report says.

"I think it’s beneficial to viewers,” LIN Executive V.P. Scott Blumenthal told B&C. “It’s one example of how to take advantage of the technology that’s available now.”
