WWBI-LP (channel 27) was a low-power television station in Plattsburgh, New York, United States.[1] Owned by SMC Communications, it was last affiliated with Ion Television.

WWBI was licensed as a Class A station, even though the calls list it as an "-LP"; this was the case with many other stations licensed prior to 1999, when the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) began to assign the "-CA" suffix for Class A licenses.
