WURH-LD (channel 13) is a low-power television station in Miami, Florida, United States. Known as The Health Channel, it is owned by South Florida PBS and part of the multiplex containing WPBT (channel 2) and WXEL-TV (channel 42). The stations' transmitter is on Northwest 199th Street in Andover, Florida.
History
[edit | edit source]On October 16, 1990, construction permit 890310UU became W25BF. On July 7, 1997, W25BF became WIMP-LP. WIMP became a Class A station on September 18, 2001, and became WIMP-CA as a result. After a flash-cut to digital TV while staying on physical channel 25, it became WIMP-CD in November 2011.
Then-owner Sunshine Broadcasting Company sold WIMP-CD's spectrum as part of the broadcast incentive auction, for $3,138,184. On December 15, 2017, Sunshine Broadcasting closed on the donation of the station to South Florida PBS, Inc. It planned to enter into a channel-sharing arrangement to operate the station on the spectrum allocated to their WPBT. The station changed its call sign to WURH-CD on December 27, 2017, and to WURH-LD on August 3, 2023, after South Florida PBS elected to revert the station to non–Class A status.
The station was previously affiliated with HSN and Elementos TV, a Hispanic TV network from Salt Lake City, Utah.
