As WMUN-CD
In mid-2012, the call letters changed to WMUN-CD, and the station began running
WMUN-CD was the third television station that operated translator station W19EH-D in Stamford, Connecticut, after WEBR-CD, WCBS-TV and WPIX.
Community Impact was moved to late afternoons in 2015, and additional children's programming was added for an hour on weekday and weekend afternoons, thus exceeding the E/I requirements. A few weeks later, the children's programming, along with public affairs programming, was dropped and the station began to air infomercials full-time. The following year, E/I programming returned on the air.
On April 13, 2017, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) announced that WMUN-CD was a successful bidder in the spectrum auction, and would be surrendering its license in exchange for $23,191,413.[2] Local Media TV surrendered WMUN-CD's license to the FCC for cancellation on August 28, 2017.
