By mid-1982, the station began carrying the ONTV subscription television service; customers would be supplied with small yagi antenna, an amplifier if needed and a set-top box in order to receive ONTV programming.
The station reverted to a general entertainment format in 1984, and changed its call sign to KWVT on October 1, 1986. Soon afterward, in 1987, the station affiliated with the Home Shopping Network; initially carried only in the overnight hours, HSN programming expanded to the midday hours later that year, and began to air full-time by 1987.
