It is owned by Weigel Broadcasting, which also owns WDJT (Channel 58) and WMLW (Channel 41) in Milwaukee. The station airs all of Telemundo's schedule along with Spanish-language coverage of some Milwaukee Brewers baseball games.

[edit] History
The station launched a nightly 10-minute newscast in July 2007 within the 22:00 national edition of Noticiero Telemundo called Noticiero Telemundo Wisconsin y tú (Wisconsin Telemundo News and You), with production assistance from WDJT. [1]
The station launched its digital channel 17 on December 10, 2007 [2] Unlike the channel 13 digital signal of WMLW, WYTU-LD's digital signal reaches the southern portion of the adjacent Green Bay/Appleton DMA, and does not have to run at a reduced power to protect the analog signal of Grand Rapids Fox affiliate WXMI, which occasionally propagates over Lake Michigan. As a result, WYTU is carried on some cable systems in that market.
