History edit

The station's construction permit was granted on April 13, 1989, under the callsign W49AX. The calls were changed to W50CI in December 1998. The station signed on for the first time on June 7, 1994, as an over-the-air outlet of The Box, and remained with that network until WBXV-LP took over MTV2. W50CI became affiliated with the Home Shopping Network in the early 2000s. In 2013, the main channel became a translator of WBNA, with HSN moving to its second subchannel. W50CI-D became a Buzzr affiliate in March 2017, becoming the second television station in Kentucky to affiliate with that station over two years after the LD2 subchannel of Bowling Green Antenna TV affiliate WCZU-LD.
