WGNM is a television station in Macon, Georgia. It is an owned and operated station, broadcasting the programming of the Christian Television Network.
On 2 September 2006, thirteen days before the shutdown of the network, WGNM's contract with UPN came to an end. Subsequently, WGNM became a full time CTN affiliate.
On February 1, 2008, WGNM has ceased analog broadcasts on analog channel 64. On May 11, 2008, the station was knocked off the air by storm damage.[2] It has since returned to the air.
WGNM intends to return to broadcast on digital channel 45, using 64 as its virtual channel number. The station originally planned to keep the analog signal until the 2009 conversion.
