WTSF is a charismatic Christian television station in the Huntington-Charleston, West Virginia market, which covers parts of that state, eastern Kentucky and southeastern Ohio. It operates on digital channel 44. While the station is licensed to Ashland, Kentucky and its offices and studio are located in Ashland, its transmitter is located on a very short tower in Huntington's city park.
The station signed on as a commercial venture in September 1982, however it was not successful and was soon donated to a local religious group. It continued as such until 2003 when the station was sold to the Daystar national charismatic Christian network and, with a few exceptions, ended local programming.
While it was locally produced, the bulk of the channel's programming consisted of fund raising to continue broadcasting.
[edit] Digital television
After the analog television shutdown and digital conversion in June, 2009,[1], WTSF remained on its current pre-transition channel number, 44.[2] However, through the use of PSIP, digital television receivers display WTSF's virtual channel as 61.
