WNGN is licensed to Troy, while WNGX is licensed to Schenectady and is officially considered to be a WNGN translator.
WNGN-LP first started as W04AT, then received the call-sign and channel W26BL on channel 26 on September 21, 1994, before receiving its current channel and call-sign on December 23, 1994.
