WHSV-TV, channel 3 (digital 49), is an ABC affiliate for the Harrisonburg, Virginia, market. WHSV News 3, as it is known on-air, is owned by Gray Television and has its transmitter located west of the town of Stanley on Massanutten Mountain. It serves 14 counties in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia and West Virginia.

In addition to its main digital signal, WHSV operates three digital subchannels: a Fox-affiliated subchannel, a My Network TV-affiliated subchannel, and another ABC-affiliated subchannel aimed toward nearby Winchester, Virginia.

WHSV has two main locations, in Harrisonburg, Virginia, the main newsroom, and in Staunton, Virginia, the Augusta County Newsroom.

WHSV News Daybreak has also received recognition as one of the top ten most watched morning news shows in the United States. [3]

The station's digital signal, on UHF 49, is multiplexed. WHSV originally planned on ceasing its analog broadcasting of February 17, 2009, the original deadline of the federally-mandated digital conversion. The station restored the signal the following Friday however, because several translator stations in communities such as Bergton that are owned by local cooperatives and county governments were unable to convert their transmitters to reconvert the digital signal into analog form [4], along with viewers who could receive the Channel 3 signal well on analog, but not at all digitally.

They ended their analog signal on June 12, 2009, the new, federally-mandated date.
