The result was redirect to List of stations owned by Innovate Corp. as a viable ATD with a slightly stronger consensus than WQCW. This can be changed, however, as a matter of editorial discretion Star Mississippi 14:30, 30 January 2024 (UTC)

Subject does not meet the
WP:SIGCOV from secondary sources. Article was part of a bulk AfD last year that closed as no consensus but there isn't much to show this meets the notability guidelines on its own. Let'srun (talk) 02:40, 16 January 2024 (UTC)

- Delete or possibly redirect to WQCW. The argument above has fallen way out of favor, including at an RfC. WHCP had issues getting its signal into Charleston, yet there is no coverage even mentioning this translator for some reason in Charleston newspapers.

- Redirect to List of stations owned by Innovate Corp. Its notability as a WQCW translator is easily noted in that article, but as Gray sold it for a pittance knowing that DTVA wouldn't come close to being a competitor, and the station's low sale price is truly the only thing of note. Gray likely knew that the station's viability once it moved the WQCW transmitter to WSAZ's stick would be nil to none (this was before they started programming subchannel networks of their own), and DTVA wouldn't be competitive at all since it can only serve Charleston proper due to the area's geography.
