History edit
WLEK-LD officially signed on the air in late 2016, four years after the FCC granted the station its broadcasting license. Before its current Azteca América affiliation (as of 2020), the station was affiliated with DTV America's upstart healthy lifestyle-oriented network the Doctor Television Channel, which ceased operations in 2019. Azteca America would also cease operations in 2022, leaving WLEK-LD to change affiliates with Visión Latina.
