WRMD-CD is a low-powered, Digital Class-A Telemundo station. The station had its start in the early-1990s on channel 57 as a Channel America affiliate, which didn't last long in Tampa. Shortly afterward, ZGS acquired the station, which they used to launch Telemundo into Tampa Bay. Telemundo was on channel 57 until the early-2000s, when they relocated to channel 49, to make room for WTTA's new digital signal on channel 57.

WRMD airs Telenoticias de Puerto Rico at 6:00 p.m. Monday - Friday. It also airs 1 minute local weather breaks throughout the day and Florida Lottery drawings. On Sunday August 14, 2011, the station launched its first program locally-produced by the station, Holaciudad teve!, broadcast Sundays at 6PM; the 30-minute weekly show will feature a magazine-style look at the people, places and issues within the region.[1]

WRMD is seen in Hillsborough County on Bright House channel 13. In 2004, it was expanded to other Bright House Systems in the Tampa Bay market. In Pinellas County, it can be seen on channel 95. It is also seen in Pinellas County on Knology channel 123. WRMD is also seen on Verizon FIOS channel 18 and locally on Direct TV.
