Profile CDBS |
WDHS was a television station in Iron Mountain, Michigan, broadcasting locally on VHF channel 8. WDHS was owned by Withers Broadcasting Companies, along with WDTV in Weston-Clarksburg, West Virginia.
The station was dark for much of its history;[1] it came on the air only for a short period on an annual basis merely as a way to keep its Federal Communications Commission (FCC) license active. The WDHS license was canceled on November 19, 2015.[2]
When WDHS was on the air, it could be seen in parts of Baraga, Delta, Dickinson, Florence (WI), Forest (WI), Gobegic, Houghton, Iron, Langlade (WI), Marinette (WI), Marquette, Menominee, Oconto (WI), Oneida (WI), and Vilas (WI) counties in Michigan and in Wisconsin.
