Due to WTCN's low-power status, the station's directional antenna pattern prevents it from reaching Vero Beach (to the north) and Boca Raton (to the south). In order to expand the broadcasting radius, WTCN is simulcast in standard definition on WTVX's third digital subchannel (34.3) from a transmitter southwest of Palm City.
WTCN-CD brands as My 15 after the cable channel position on most West Palm Beach area cable providers.
