WDSF-LD is a low-powered digital television station that is licensed to and serving Montgomery, Alabama. The station, which broadcasts on UHF digital channel 19, is owned by DTV America Corporation, a television station group based in Sunrise, Florida. The station is affiliated with MyNetworkTV, with programming from Doctor Television Channel (Doctor TV) filling other time slots. [1]

History

The station’s construction permit was granted on May 17, 2011 under the callsign W19DS-D. The current WDSF call letters were adopted on December 13, 2013.

On December 20, 2013, DTV America announced that WDSF, along with two other stations (WCZU-LD in Bowling Green, Kentucky and KPJO-LD in Joplin, Missouri), would become affiliates of MyNetworkTV, with programming from another service filling slots outside prime-time. While WCZU and KPJO chosen Antenna TV, WDSF opted for Doctor TV.[1] (WCOV-TV is currently the Antenna TV affiliate for Central Alabama.) Doctor TV is also seen full-time on subchannel 19.2.

This would also be a return of MyNetworkTV to Central Alabama, since WRJM's disaffiliation from the network in 2009. Since then, most Central Alabama cable viewers watched MyNetworkTV via Birmingham affiliate WABM.

In 2015, the Sonlife Broadcasting Network became available on a third digital subchannel. It was replaced by Sony Pictures Television's GetTV movie network in December 2015. During that month, DrTV's full-time schedule on the second subchannel was replaced by FremantleMedia's Buzzr network. In 2017, the main channel's primary affiliation was changed to AMGTV, with MyNetworkTV remaining in the 7-9 p.m. timeslots.
