WTSN-CD, virtual and UHF digital channel 20, is a low-powered, Class A Antenna TV-affiliated television station licensed to Evansville, Indiana, United States. The station is owned by Three Sisters Broadcasting, as part of a duopoly with WYYW-CD (channel 15).
WAZE-TV originally occupied its digital signal on UHF channel 20 just before that station shut down permanently in 2011.
History[]
The low-powered channel 20 signed on in September 2011 as MeTV affiliate WYYW-CD. This happened after CBS affiliate WEVV-TV began broadcasting Fox network programming on its second digital subchannel.
In 2012, WYYW-CD and sister station WTSN-CD swapped call signs. The original WTSN-CD became WYYW-CD, while the original WYYW-CD became WTSN-CD.[1]
The station became a Heroes & Icons affiliate on October 21, 2014, while MeTV relocated to WFIE-DT2. Then on January 17, 2015, WTSN replaced its Heroes and Icons affiliation with Heartland's E/I programming repeats from its sister station on Saturday mornings because of its Sunday religious and local programming up until the Heartland affiliation with WYYW-CD ended.
On October 25, 2019, WTSN dropped H&I affiliation, replacing it with Antenna TV.[2]
