WZXZ-CA is a Class A low-powered television station in Orlando, Florida. It is owned by L4 Media Group, and broadcasts on UHF channel 36 (analog).
The station originally signed on as an affiliate of The Box. Following The Box's acquisition by Viacom in 2001, it began carrying programming from MTV2.
From 2004 to late summer of 2006, WZXZ carried the Spanish music video channel Mas Musica, now known as MTV Tr3́s. However, when Mas Musica became MTV Tr3́s, WZXZ resumed simulcast of MTV2 for a short period of time, rather than picking up MTV Tr3́s, for unknown reasons.
For some part of later 2006, it had shown a repeated loop of a religious infomercial. This was the last actual programming shown on the channel. For most of 2007, the station was broadcasting nothing but the screen saver from a DVD player, accompanied by an outdated severe weather warning crawl across the screen.
Most recently, sometime around the start of January 2008, the station has been transmitting a color bar test pattern with call letters displayed via CHARGEN overlay. This is presumably due to no station ID being displayed per FCC requirements for some time (aside from when the EAS-triggered warnings would occasionally be scrolled). It is still unknown what future plans this station might have. There is no indication that the station has yet applied for a digital companion channel, and thus (like many LPTV stations) will likely continue to broadcast in analog format for some time after full-power TV stations cease their analog operations on February 17, 2009.
