KWWF is a television station licensed to Waterloo, Iowa. KWWF broadcasts on UHF channel 22 and is the affiliate of the Retro Television Network for the Waterloo,Cedar Rapids,Dubuque and Iowa City market. Its transmitter is located in Waterloo, Iowa.
History
KWWF signed on in Jan.19th 2003 with a format of infomercials, home shopping and reruns that were in the public domain. It then began rebroadcasting religious programs from LeSEA Broadcasting.
Equity Broadcasting bought the station in the summer of 2004 and quickly made it a general entertainment station. UPN programming began Sept.13th 2004 and cable systems throughout the market began to add KWWF.
In 2006, with the end of UPN, KWWF became an affiliate of Equity Broadcasting's own Retro Television Network to fill the gaps left by the end of UPN programming.
Operations and programming
While KWWF has a transmitter and sales office in Waterloo, the master control is actually in Little Rock, Arkansas. Equity Broadcasting transmits the signal to the transmitter and cable systems via satellite. KWWF's current signal can only be seen over the air within approximately 25 miles from Waterloo.
In addition to its own programming, KWWF airs CBS Sports programming that is not cleared by local CBS affiliate KGAN-TV due to KGAN airing Big Ten Conference football and basketball or the Jerry Lewis Labor Day Telethon.
