The then-WBXA-CD discontinued regular programming on its analog signal, over

VHF channel 2, on June 3, 2015, a little under three months prior to the official date on which Class A low-power analog television stations in the United States transitioned from analog to digital broadcasts
under federal mandate. The station's digital signal remained on its pre-transition UHF channel 24.
