In 1993, WSJN-TV returns to the air, and was owned by El Nuevo Comandante Racetrack corporation, broadcasting Horse racing, and it is branded as ''Telenet''. On January 13, 1998, WSJN-TV changes its callsign to the current WJPX, after former owner Paxson Communications sell the station. On August 31, 1998, WJPX, along with the rest of the Paxson stations, premiered the new Pax TV television network, with a programming mix of infomercials, off-network reruns labeled as "family entertainment", and The Worship Network during overnights. WJPX was later owned by LIN TV, which branded the station MTV. At that time, the station broadcast MTV programs (both locally produced and imported from the main MTV network), videos and horse races. The MTV branding and programming were licensed from Viacom, which, incidentally, once owned two of WJPX's then-sister stations: WWHO in Columbus, Ohio and WNDY-TV in Indianapolis, before those stations were sold to LIN in 2005. On October 19, 2006 LIN TV announced that it had entered into an agreement to sell WJPX along with sister station WAPA-TV to InterMedia Partners for $130 million in cash.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=LIN TV to Sell Puerto Rico Operations )〕 The sale was completed on March 30, 2007.
