WWTV (channel 9) and WWUP-TV (channel 10) are television stations licensed respectively to Cadillac and Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan, United States, serving as the CBS affiliates for the northern Lower and eastern Upper peninsulas of Michigan. They are owned by locally based 910 Media Group, which provides certain services to Cadillac-licensed dual Fox/CW+ affiliate WFQX-TV, channel 32 (and its Vanderbilt-licensed full-time satellite, WFUP, channel 45) under a shared services agreement (SSA) with Cadillac Telecasting. The stations share studios on Broadcast Way (near US 131) in Cadillac; WWTV's transmitter is located on 130th Avenue northeast of Tustin, while WWUP's tower is near Goetzville, Michigan.

WWUP operates as a full-time satellite of WWTV; aside from the transmitter, it does not maintain any physical presence in Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan. Together, the two stations are known on-air as 9&10 and serve the largest television market east of the Mississippi River: 23 counties in the northern Lower Peninsula and three counties in the eastern Upper Peninsula. In addition, WWUP's signal can be received by viewers in Northern Ontario including Sault Ste. Marie's Canadian sister city.
