WNJX-TV is a full-power television station in Mayagüez, Puerto Rico transmitting over analog channel 22, digital 23. WNJX-TV is owned by Intermedia Partners, LCC.

History

During the 1980s and 1990s, WNJX-TV's 120 kW signal was only able to cover metro Mayagüez, nevertheless it became a satellite for WLII. The station lost its programming from WLII when WLII switched to WORA-TV, and it's unknown what the station brocadcast until it became a satellite for WAPA-TV. When LIN TV purchased the station, the company built a new transmitter on Monte del Estado and augmented its ERP to 4201 kW. Now WNJX-TV covers about 80% of Puerto Rico's western coast. This helped WAPA-TV regain it's position as a major Puerto Rican station.

On October 19,2006 LIN TV announced that it had entered into an agreement to sell its Puerto Rico television operations to InterMedia Partners, L.P. for $130 million in cash. [http://www.corporate-ir.net/ireye/ir_site.zhtml?ticker=TVL&script=410&layout=-6&item_id=918570 ] The sale was completed on March 30, 2007.

Programming

WNJX-TV currently serves as a satellite for WAPA-TV and simulcasts 100% of its programing. The station does have a small studio in Aguada which is used to produce news segments for WAPA-TV's "Noticentro". These segments are entitled "Noticentro: Sur y Oeste" and are similar to WORA-TV's and WOLE-TV's news offerings. However, unlike the former western stations, the news segments produced at WNJX-TV can be seen all across Puerto Rico.
