History
Waubonsee Community College , which serves the
Aurora area, launched the station on channel 54 as W54BE. Programming included
distance education telecourses from the college and a community bulletin board.
[3] The station moved to channel 40 in 2008, with the call sign W40CN. The college marketed the station as primarily on cable:
Comcast channel 99 or 17;
Mediacom channel 15; or
AT&T U-Verse channel 99.
[4]
The college was not able to construct a digital facility for the station, citing severe budget problems with Illinois state funding and the local district's real estate tax base as reasons.
[5] In April 2012, the college filed to sell W40CN to Local Media TV Holdings.
[6]
On November 24, 2020, the station moved to digital channel 27, as W27EB-D. On October 24, 2022, the station changed its call sign to WILC-CD. On April 19, 2023, it was announced that WILC-CD would be sold to Daystar for $4,975,000; the transaction was completed on June 15.
