'''WRDC''' (channel 28) is a [[television station]] licensed to [[Durham, North Carolina]], United States, serving the [[Research Triangle]] area as an affiliate of [[MyNetworkTV]]. It is owned by [[Sinclair Broadcast Group]] alongside [[Raleigh, North Carolina|Raleigh]]-licensed [[The CW|CW]] affiliate [[WLFL]] (channel 22). BothThe two stations share studios in the Highwoods Office Park, just outside downtown Raleigh, while; WRDC's transmitter is located in [[Auburn, North Carolina]].

Channel 28 is the third-oldest television station in the Triangle and was the market's [[NBC]] affiliate for its first 27 years of operation. It was perennially the third-rated station in the market and did not produce local newscasts for significant portions of its tenure with NBC, which contributed to the network moving to another station.
