broadcast station
On-air facility
A broadcast station is a facility that transmits radio or television signals to the public over designated frequencies.
The term distinguishes traditional over-the-air broadcasters from cable networks or streaming services: The local broadcast station interrupted programming for a weather alert.
Often shortened to just station.
