WCKV-LD is a low-powered television station licensed to and serving Clarksville, Tennessee. It broadcasts on UHF digital channel 30, but through the use of PSIP, over-the-air receivers display it as virtual channel 21. It is carried on local cable system CDE Lightband on channel 12, and Clarksville-area Charter Cable systems on channel 9. The station is an affiliate of The Walk TV network.[1]
History
It began broadcasting in May 1998 under the callsigns W69EC. In 2000, the call letters changed to WCKV-LP.
They had the call sign W30DE-D when their digital television signal first began in 2010, but the station changed the call letters to the current WCKV-LD three years later.[2]
Programming
Aside from programming from The Walk TV, WCKV offers an array of local programming, like Clarksville’s Top Spots, Tennessee’s Wild Side, and many more. The Walk TV’s programming includes a mixture of religious and healthy-lifestyle programming, similar to those of CTN and Doctor TV. One hour of children’s programming is broadcast Monday through Saturday from 3 to 4 p.m. CT, making a total of six hours of children’s educational programming. Some public domain movies and episodes of Bonanza are also aired.[3]
Coverage area
WCKV’s transmitter is located in western Montgomery County near Woodlawn just off Tennessee State Route 233. With its 10,000 watts of power, its over-the-air signal can cover all of Montgomery County, reach into parts of Dickson, Cheatham, Houston, Robertson, and Stewart counties of northwestern Middle Tennessee. Thanks to the city’s proximity to the Kentucky state line, the signal can also penetrate some parts of Christian, Todd, and Trigg counties of western Kentucky.[4]
