WHNE-LP is a low-power television station in Flint, Michigan, broadcasting locally on channel 32 as an affiliate of America One. Owned by Thomas Tait, its transmitter is located outside Clio with a highly direction signal pointed south reaching parts of Flint.
The station was originally owned by P&P Cable Holdings subsidiary NTN/Saginaw, and licensed in Pinconning (60 miles north of Flint) to broadcast there on channel 52. In late-2005, Tait acquired WHNE (which never signed on from Pinconning) and relocated the station to Flint, where it signed on on channel 32.
The WHNE calls were originally used on radio in the Detroit area; first from 1973 to 1978 on what is now WCSX 94.7 FM; later from 2002 to 2004 on today's WLBY-AM 1290 in Saline. Both stations played an oldies format. It is known that former owner P&P generally "resurrects" calls of Michigan radio and TV stations for their low-powered stations.
Until May 2006, WHNE was affiliated with Urban America Television; WHNE switched to America One after UATV suspended operations.
