WANN-LP is a low-power TV station on channel 32 in metro Atlanta. The station is owned by Prism Broadcasting Network and airs the Shop at Home Network and Jewelry TV. WANN carried Urban America Television until 2006 when the network suspended operations. Prism also owns WANX-LP on channel 26 in Atlanta.
[edit] History
It was originally applied for in January 1986, on channel 22 in Rome, Georgia, and assigned callsign W22CD. Before going on the air, it changed to channel 34 as W34AG. It was later moved to Sweat Mountain and licensed to Roswell, Georgia in north metro Atlanta, again as W22CD on channel 22, due to what was then WNGM-TV on 34 in Athens, Georgia. It was displaced from 22 again by WGTV-TV's digital allotment (changed in 2004 to channel 12), finally settling in 1999 on channel 32 as WFNA-LP and moving its antenna, transmitter and license to what is now the Bank of America Plaza in Atlanta. It became WANN-LP in June of 2002.
WANN-LP has a construction permit to become a class A station (making it WANN-CA). Currently, the station's directional antenna covers very little to the eastern half. Oddly, it will not increase its coverage at all but rather decrease it, and transmit it only in a very sharp lobe to the southwest.
WANN-LP currently shares the same antenna diplexed with WDTA-LP, though that station has applied to move to another site very nearby.
