WMYG-LP, channel 11, is the low-powered MyNetworkTV-affiliated television station for Gainesville, Florida that is licensed to Lake City. Its transmitter is located in the Lacymark section of the city. Owned by New Age Media, the station is sister to CBS affiliate WGFL-TV and NBC affiliate WNBW. All three stations share studios on Northwest 80th Boulevard in Gainesville along I-75. Syndicated programming on WMYG includes: Two and a Half Men, Family Guy, Judge Judy, and Frasier. In addition, the station airs Tampa Bay Rays games from the Rays Television Network. Every year in August, WMYG airs Jacksonville Jaguars preseason games from CBS affiliate WTEV-TV in Jacksonville.

The station operates a Class A repeater in Gainesville, WYPN-CA, on UHF channel 45. This station's transmitter is located south of the city along I-75. Due to its low-powered status, WMYG does not broadcast a digital signal of its own. Instead, there is one offered on WGFL's second digital subchannel. This signal broadcasts from a transmitter in Newberry. WMYG's city of license, Lake City, is within the Jacksonville market. Despite that, Time Warner Cable does not carry WMYG or their own affiliate, WAWS-DT2, on its system there. In Gainesville, WMYG can be seen on Cox cable channel 11.

[edit] History

WMYG-LP had the call letters WLCF-LP when it launched in 2007, broadcasted on UHF channel 15, and was a repeater for WGFL's now defunct analog signal. The station changed its calls to the current WMYG-LP in 2002. On January 24, 2006, The WB and UPN announced that they would end broadcasting and merge. The new combined network would be called The CW. The letters would represent the first initial of its corporate parents, CBS (the parent company of UPN) and the Warner Bros. unit of Time Warner. On February 22, News Corporation announced that they would start up another new network called MyNetworkTV. This new service, which would be a sister network to FOX, would be operated by FOX Television Stations and its syndication division, Twentieth Television.

MyNetworkTV was created in order to give UPN and WB stations, not mentioned as becoming CW affiliates, another option besides becoming independent. It was also created in order to compete against The CW. On September 5, WMYG became affiliated with MyNetworkTV and WGFL-DT2 began simulcasting the station. On September 18, ABC affiliate WCJB-TV launched a new second digital subchannel to be the area's CW affiliate as part of The CW Plus. MyNetworkTV is the first network that WMYG has ever been an affiliate of. At some point in 2009, WYPN will become its own station and be the Retro Television Network affiliate for Gainesville.
