WSVI is an ABC-affiliated, full-power television station in St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands transmitting over digital channel 8.1. The station is owned by Atlas News and Information Services.
WSVI has a satellite, WZVI channel 43, in Charlotte Amalie, as well as an analog translator, WFIG-LP channel 5.
The station signs off after Jimmy Kimmel Live! nightly at 2:05am AST (1:05 am AST March to November) and does not air overnight programming over their broadcast signal. A majority of the station's non-network schedule consists of paid programming outside of required E/I programming and their weeknight-only 11 pm local newscasts. This is likely because the U.S. Virgin Islands receives other broadcast networks and superstations from the mainland via cable and satellite, thus the need for WSVI to maintain a full broadcast schedule of syndicated programming outside of network hours for island residents and tourists is negated, since those stations usually contain that syndicated programming in their schedules.
WSVI's newscasts are available online via their YouTube channel.
In April 2011, WSVI's former owner, the Figgie Family Equity Fund, agreed to sell the station to Atlas News and Information Services of Las Vegas, Nevada, pending FCC approval.[1][2]
