'''Mississippi Public Broadcasting''' ('''MPB''') is the [[public broadcasting]] network serving the [[U.S. state]] of [[Mississippi]]. It is owned by the '''Mississippi Authority for Educational Television''' ('''MAET'''), an agency of the [[Government of Mississippi|state government]] that holds the [[broadcast license|licenses]] for all of the [[PBS]] and [[NPR]] [[network affiliate#Member stations|member stations]] in the state. MPB's headquarters is located on Ridgewood Road in northeast [[Jackson, Mississippi|Jackson]]. The public broadcaster was established as '''Mississippi Educational Television'''.

==History==
Mississippi was a relative latecomer to public broadcasting. By the late 1960s, it was the only state east of the [[Mississippi River]] without an [[educational television]] station licensed within its borders. The only areas of the state to get a clear signal from a [[National Educational Television]] (NET) or PBS station were the northwestern counties (from [[Memphis, Tennessee|Memphis]]' [[WKNO (TV)|WKNO]]) and the counties along the Gulf Coast (from [[New Orleans]]' [[WYES-TV]] and [[Mobile, Alabama|Mobile]]'s [[Alabama Public Television|Alabama Educational Television]] outlet, [[WEIQ]]).

In 1969, the [[Mississippi Legislature]] created the Mississippi Authority for Educational Television to create a locally focused educational television service for Mississippi. After almost a year of planning, WMAA (channel 29, now WMPN-TV) in Jackson debuted on February 1, 1970, as the state's first educational television station. It immediately joined PBS. The initial broadcast was written by Jeanne Lucket and produced and co-directed by Mims Wright, then Director of Public Affairs at Jackson [[NBC]] affiliate [[WLBT]], and Joe Root, WLBT Production Manager.

Only four months after beginning operations, WMAA received unwanted national attention when it refused to carry ''[[Sesame Street]]'' because of its racially integrated cast. That decision was reversed 22 days later after a nationwide outcry.<ref>{{Cite web | url=https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2009-jan-08-et-book8-story.html |title = A history of sunny days| website=[[Los Angeles Times]] |date = January 8, 2009}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web | url=http://www.newsweek.com/id/199141 | title=How Sesame Street Changed the World| website=[[Newsweek]]| date=May 23, 2009}}</ref> Six other stations began operation over the next few years, and the state network became known as '''Mississippi Educational Television''', or simply '''ETV'''.

Public radio came even later, arriving in the state in 1983. Eventually, '''Public Radio in Mississippi''' ('''PRM''') expanded to eight stations throughout the state.

On November 20, 2003, MAET adopted "Mississippi Public Broadcasting" as an umbrella on-air brand for all television and radio operations.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.etv.state.ms.us/about_us/pr/031120-name-change.htm |access-date=2025-05-04 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20031211130304/http://www.etv.state.ms.us/about_us/pr/031120-name-change.htm |archive-date=December 11, 2003 }}</ref>

MPB received a [[construction permit]] for station '''WMAA''', channel 43 in [[Columbus, Mississippi|Columbus]], in 1998. This permit was modified to specify digital-only operation and granted again in 2001. The permit expired June 27, 2003, without any construction having taken place.<ref>{{cite web |title=DWMAA Facility Data |url=https://fccdata.org/?lang=en&appid=605208&facid=83735 |website=FCCData}}</ref> MPB has stated there are currently no plans or funding to build the station.{{citation needed|date=November 2018}}

MPB Television covers nearly all of the state, as well as parts of [[Alabama]], [[Tennessee]] and [[Louisiana]]. Additionally, WMAV is carried on [[DirecTV]] and [[Dish Network]]'s Memphis feeds, bringing its programming to an additional 1.4 million people in Tennessee and [[Arkansas]]. Oxford is part of the Memphis market.

===Analog-to-digital conversion===
During 2009, in the lead-up to the [[Digital television transition in the United States|analog-to-digital television transition]] that would ultimately occur on June 12, MPB shut down the analog transmitters of its stations on a staggered basis. Listed below are the dates each analog transmitter ceased operations as well as their post-transition channel allocations:<ref>{{cite web |url=http://hraunfoss.fcc.gov/edocs_public/attachmatch/DA-06-1082A2.pdf |title=DTV Tentative Channel Designations for the First and the Second Rounds |access-date=March 24, 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130829004251/http://hraunfoss.fcc.gov/edocs_public/attachmatch/DA-06-1082A2.pdf |archive-date=August 29, 2013 |url-status=dead }}</ref>
* WMPN-TV shut down its analog signal, over [[UHF]] channel 29, on February 17, 2009, the original date in which full-power television stations in the United States were to [[Digital television transition in the United States|transition from analog to digital broadcasts]] under federal mandate (which was later pushed back to June 12, 2009). The station's digital signal remained on its pre-transition UHF channel 20, using [[virtual channel]] 29.
* WMAH-TV shut down its analog signal, over UHF channel 19, on February 17, 2009. The station's digital signal remained on its pre-transition UHF channel 16, using virtual channel 19.
* WMAE-TV shut down its analog signal, over VHF channel 12, on June 12, 2009, the official date in which full-power television in the United States transitioned from analog to digital broadcasts under federal mandate. The station's digital signal relocated from its pre-transition UHF channel 55, which was among the high band UHF channels (52-69) that were removed from broadcasting use as a result of the transition, to its analog-era VHF channel 12.
* WMAU-TV shut down its analog signal, over UHF channel 17, on February 17, 2009. The station's digital signal remained on its pre-transition UHF channel 18, using virtual channel 17.
* WMAO-TV shut down its analog signal, over UHF channel 23, on February 17, 2009. The station's digital signal remained on its pre-transition UHF channel 25, using virtual channel 23.
* WMAW-TV shut down its analog signal, over UHF channel 14, on February 17, 2009. The station's digital signal remained on its pre-transition UHF channel 44, using virtual channel 14.
* WMAB-TV shut down its analog signal, over VHF channel 2, on February 17, 2009. The station's digital signal remained on its pre-transition VHF channel 10, using virtual channel 2.
* WMAV-TV shut down its analog signal, over UHF channel 18, on February 17, 2009. The station's digital signal remained on its pre-transition UHF channel 36, using virtual channel 18.

== MPB Radio ==
MPB Radio consists of eight stations covering most of the state. It airs mostly news and talk programming from NPR and other distributors of [[public radio]] programming, along with several locally produced shows.

Recently, MPB has added a 24-hour [[classical music]] service on its second HD channel, which now also airs on DT4 on all MPB television stations. It brands this programming as "Music Radio," while the original MPB Radio service is known as "Think Radio." Shows produced by MPB Music include the nationally distributed program ''Sounds Jewish''. All of MPB's radio stations also air the Radio Reading Service of Mississippi<ref>{{Cite web |title=Radio Reading Services |url=https://www.mpbonline.org/radio/radio-reading-services/ |access-date=October 6, 2022 |website=MPB — Mississippi Public Broadcasting |language=en}}</ref> on their FM subcarriers, which is also simulcast on the DT4 subchannel on the "Spanish/Audio Description" audio channel.

MPB Radio streams both of its services live in Windows Media and Mac formats.
