==History==
The station first signed on the air on March 2, 1991, originally operating as a 24-hour-a-day home shopping channel. In 1995, WJYS became more of a general entertainment station, picking up a number of syndicated programs. These shows included ''Laverne & Shirley'', ''The Odd Couple'', ''Little House on the Prairie'', ''Gunsmoke'', ''Highway to Heaven'' and ''Matlock'', along with older movies and anime programming, plus the Indiana Lottery game show ''Hoosier Millionaire''. By 1997, WJYS was running infomercials and religious programming most of the day and by 2000, most of the entertainment shows were gone from the station. Today, the station offers both religious and secular paid programming, as well as some entertainment programs.
Unlike the analog transmitter once located in Tinley Park, WJYS-DT has a transmitter atop the Willis Tower on channel 36, allowing for greater signal coverage.〔(Polar Plot ) linked to the (FCC database for WJYS ).〕 The WJYS signal during the analog television era reached approximately 7.5 million people in the Chicago metropolitan area, expanding to nearly 11 million households across Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin and Michigan following the June 2009 digital television transition as its digital transmitter facilities on Willis Tower replicated the coverage area of the major broadcast stations in the market.
