WHDT-LD, virtual channel 4 (UHF digital channel 4), is a low-power television station licensed to Boston, Massachusetts, United States. WHDT-LD currently broadcasts the high definition program schedule of Real VOICE OF AMERICA from a tower atop the Prudential Center in downtown Boston. The station is one of three stations operated by WHDT World Television Service (DE), a business unit of Marksteiner AG. Superstation WHDT-LD is available worldwide on the TUNI media platform.
On January 6, 2004, the station (then known as WHDN-LP) was granted a license to convert to digital operations, making it one of the first digital low-power stations in the United States; others include Günter Marksteiner's WHDT-CD in Miami, Florida (sold to LocusPoint Networks) and WTHC-LD in Atlanta, Georgia. The station was affiliated with WHDT, the nation's oldest digital television station, which was later sold to Scripps Networks on 4 April 2019.
