History
The station signed on the air on June 25, 1986 under the ownership if Tiger Eye Broadcasting as W61AR, broadcasting on analog UHF channel 61. The station moved to analog channel 54 for a few months under the callsign W52AR from January until April 1989, when it returned to channel 61, and reverted to the station's original callsign. The station became WJNK-LP when it relocated to analog channel 34 in 1997, and had broadcasting on that channel ever since. From the station's sign on in 1986 until 1999, the station was a Independent Station and also carried FamilyNet as a secondary affiliation. On January 20, 1999, Tiger Eye Broadcasting sold WJNK-LP to 3ABN, The sale of the station was finalized on April 13, 1999 & at the same time, the station switched to broadcasting Religious Programming from 3ABN 24 hours a day, as the station has been broadcasting in that format & broadcasting programming from 3ABN ever since.[2]
WJNK’s digital signal began broadcasting on digital UHF channel 28 in 2012. The station’s digital counterpart is operated on a construction permit in preparation of the Digital television transition for low-powered television stations that have not shut down their analog signals. Low-power stations who still broadcast in analog, includind WJNK is obligated to shut down their analog signal and replace it with a digital signal by September 1, 2015. However, the cutoff date for standard LPTVs and translators still broadcasting in analog had been suspended until further notice, therefore, WJNK still also continues to broadcast in analog until the full conversion to digital operations is completed.
