WUJX-LD is a MeeMeeTV-affiliated television station that focuses on locally created content.
History
The station originally launched on digital as WJXE-LP on December 1, 2007 and began branding as "Fresh TV". The station entered an agreement with Comcast to make the station available to all of its 300,000 subscribers in the Jacksonville area. It was to be offered on Comcast channel 14. The station claimed that its local programming was intended to be targeted towards the African American audience. Plans for the channel were aborted, and the station never signed on.
The station changed its call sign to WVVQ-LD on June 29, 2009.
The station would later launch in 2014 as "MeeMee TV Jax", which specializes in locally-produced television programming, not unlike public-access television. The station is operated by MeeMee, a Jacksonville-based company that specialized in online video streaming services.
The station changed its call sign to the current WUJX-LD on November 10, 2015.
