Channel 13 began broadcasting on May 16, 1954, as WGAN-TV. It was owned by Guy Gannett Broadcasting Services, owner of radio station WGAN in Portland and publisher of several Maine newspapers including the Portland Press Herald. It was an affiliate of CBS and ABC at the outset and broadcast from a facility shared with the Press Herald in downtown Portland. In 1959, transmission moved to the Brown Hill site, with a tower that was briefly the world's tallest man-made structure, and the station occupied its present studio facility in 1977. After WGAN radio was separated from the TV station in 1983, channel 13 changed its call sign to WGME—"We're Gannett of Maine"—on January 1, 1984. It was the leading TV news station in Maine until the mid-1980s, when it was surpassed by WCSH (channel 6).
