History

The original construction permit for the station was granted on October 29, 1987 for operation on channel 46; [2] the station was assigned the call letters W46AV. [3] Originally owned by Tel-Radio Communications Properties, the permit was transferred to the Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN) in 1988. [4] A license to cover was issued August 16, 1990. [5] It moved to channel 51 in 2000 [6] and became W51CU. [3]

TBN sold W51CU to Tim Wall, owner of Scranton Broadcasting Company, LLC in 2010. [7] Soon after the sale was approved (but while still under TBN ownership), the station changed its call letters to WGUD-LP. [3] Scranton relaunched WGUD on September 1, 2010 as a FamilyNet affiliate, with some local programming. On January 4, 2013, the station changed its call sign to WGUD-LD.

Digital television

WGUD currently has a construction permit to move its signal to digital channel 38. [8] A previous such permit, granted in 2006, expired on June 19, 2009. Around 2011, WGUD consummated its relocation, and began broadcasting three subchannels, with programming from FamilyNet, MeTV and Pursuit Channel. The Cowboy Channel replaced FamilyNet on July 1, 2017.
