History

Former station logo

WOTH was previously branded as "The Other Channel". It began in 1998 as W35BA, channel 35, broadcasting programming from America's Store[1] and Urban America Television that had previously aired on WBQC. It soon moved to channel 39, becoming W39CG.[2] In 2001, the station became WOTH-LP and moved to channel 38. WOTH adopted a simplified version of WBQC's old "25 TV" logo.[3]

WOTH-CD now operates on Channel 20 with plans to launch five new channels in the Cincinnati market.

Programming

WBQC airs network programming except for four hours per week of locally-produced programs:[4]

  • Heart of Compassion
  • Inform Cincinnati
