WIPX-TV (channel 63) is a television station licensed to Bloomington, Indiana, United States, serving the Indianapolis area as an affiliate of Ion Television. It is owned by Inyo Broadcast Holdings alongside Bounce TV affiliate WCLJ-TV (channel 42, also licensed to Bloomington). WIPX-TV and WCLJ-TV share offices on Production Drive (near I-465) in southwestern Indianapolis; through a channel sharing agreement, the two stations transmit using WIPX-TV's spectrum from an antenna on SR 252 in Trafalgar, Indiana.[1]
Channel 63 went on air at the end of 1988 as WIIB, owned by Sinclair Broadcast Group and broadcasting Home Shopping Network programming. It dropped HSN for Infomall TV (inTV) at the start of 1996. Sinclair sold controlling interest to a related entity in 1996; the station was then sold to an affiliate of Paxson Communications Corporation in 1998, coinciding with the launch of the Pax network, forerunner to Ion. Inyo Broadcast Holdings acquired WIPX-TV and WCLJ-TV in 2020 as part of the acquisition of Ion by the E. W. Scripps Company.
