Digital television[1]
This station's digital signal, like most other full-service TBN owned-and-operated stations, carries five different TBN-run networks.
| Channel | Video | Aspect | PSIP Short Name | Programming |
|---|---|---|---|---|

TBN-owned full-power stations permanently ceased analog transmissions on April 16, 2009.
WELF-TV shut down its analog signal, over UHF channel 23, on that date. The station's digital signal remained on its pre-transition UHF channel 16.[2] Through the use of PSIP, digital television receivers display the station's virtual channel as its former UHF analog channel 23.
