History
[edit | edit source]A construction permit for a low-power television station on UHF channel 27 in Cleveland was issued on December 8, 1994[3] under the call sign W27BQ[4] to North Georgia Television.[5] On October 27, 1997, the station filed for a license to cover, which was granted on November 17.[6] The call letters were changed to WTNB-LP on July 1, 1998; on June 12, 2003, the call sign was modified to WTNB-CA,[4] after having been granted class A status on September 10, 2001.[7] Under North Georgia Television, WTNB was a sister station to WDNN-CA and WDGA-CA in Dalton, Georgia; by 2005, WTNB and WDNN programmed similar lineups featuring FamilyNet and local programming, though WTNB's local programming was separate from that on WDNN.[8]
North Georgia Television sold WTNB-CA to PTP Holdings for $350,000 in 2009.[9] After a period off the air, WTNB resumed broadcasting under the new ownership in January 2010 as a My Family TV affiliate.[10] On April 13, 2015, the call sign was modified to WTNB-CD,[4] after converting to digital television in October 2014.[11] In the FCC's incentive auction, WTNB-CD sold its spectrum for $370,099 and elected to move to a low VHF channel;[12] the station was assigned channel 5.[13]
