WGEN-TV
WGEN-TV, virtual and VHF digital channel 8, is a MundoMax-affiliated television station located in Key West, Florida, United States. The station is owned by Mapale, LLC, the parent of Colombian-based holding company Valórem S.A.. WGEN-TV maintains studio facilities located on Northwest 75th Street in Miami's Medley neighborhood, and its transmitter is located on Simonton Street in Key West. WGEN's signal is relayed through a network of eight low-power translator stations throughout South Florida and the Florida Keys.
==History==
The station first signed on the air on May 26, 1996 as WWFD; it subsequently changed its call letters to WWTU on February 8, 2000, then to WVIB on February 8, 2002 and finally to its current calls as WGEN-TV on July 1, 2004. Prior to December 2005, WGEN was, under the ownership of Sonia Broadcasting, co-owned with another Key West station, WDLP-TV (channel 22, now WSBS-TV).
In December 2005, WGEN came under the control of Colombian broadcaster Caracol Televisión, which holds a 25% ownership stake in Mapale, LLC, the maximum allowed by Federal Communications Commission (FCC) regulations regarding foreign ownership of broadcast stations. On September 18, 2006, Caracol relaunched the station under the "GenTV" brand and began serving as its primary program supplier; programming on WGEN included Colombian and Brazilian telenovelas, a Colombian-produced news program, and a local version of ''Desafío 20.06'', a ''reality show'' similar to ''Survivor''.
On December 28, 2012 at 8 p.m. Eastern Time, MundoFox moved its Miami affiliation from WJAN-CD to WGEN-TV. While WGEN-TV is owned and operated by and airs programming from the Colombian television network Caracol Televisión, as a MundoFox affiliate, it shares an indirect connection with another Colombian television network as the network was initially half-owned by the competing RCN Televisión, and has since been fully owned by RCN Televisión. RCN content comes from the network feed of MundoFox, while Caracol programming is distributed directly to WGEN-TV through its owners. WGEN-TV airs national newscasts from MundoFox through ''Noticias MundoFox'', which uses the resources of NTN24, RCN’s sister network and international Spanish-language news channel; WGEN-TV also airs Caracol's national newscast ''Noticias Caracol''.
