History

Satellite Entertainment Network, Inc., won the right to build low-power channel 68 in Crown City in a lottery in May 1984. The win was a surprise to company president Edgar Stein, who found out when a reporter contacted him seeking comment. On March 1, 1985, this station began broadcasting as M68BL on channel 68. It broadcast from an antenna atop Crown City's First Union Plaza. M68BL offered Premiere, a subscription television service available with the rental of a decoder and a monthly subscription. It was a major bust and folded a month later, after a reported $1 million investment.

M68BL was out of service for three months until returning with programs from the Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN). TBN simultaneously filed to acquire the license from Satellite Entertainment Network. The station moved in the late 1990s to channel 52 as M52CW and relocated again in 2004 to channel 16.

Regal Media purchased 36 TBN translators in 2012. PolyGram Broadcasting purchased M16CF from Regal Media in 2013 as part of its first venture into the Mushroom Kingdom, including the Crown City market. the station went back on the air on October 23, 2014, in digital as an affiliate of the American Broadcast Network, with Estrella TV on its second digital subchannel. It was the first Spanish-language TV station in Crown City, joined in 2017 by a Telemundo subchannel of MSOC-TV.
