WMET-TV was a television station operating on channel 24 in Baltimore, Maryland, from 1967 to 1972. It was owned by the United Broadcasting Company and served as a semi-satellite of its WOOK-TV/WFAN-TV in Washington, D.C., with some locally originated programs. Due to a series of financial and license difficulties at United, WMET-TV closed in January 1972, a month before WFAN-TV.
