After a lengthy award and construction process, WJYS began broadcasting on March 2, 1991. It was originally a home shopping station before becoming a general-entertainment independent in November 1994. It augmented its syndicated programming with local-interest specialty shows for Chicago's Black community as well as local sports, but it slowly became primarily a purveyor of religious programs and [[infomercial]]s.
