WBKI-TV (channel 34) was a television station licensed to Campbellsville, Kentucky, United States, which served the Louisville area. Last owned by LM Communications, LLC, it was most recently affiliated with The CW. LM Communications maintained a local marketing agreement (LMA) with Block Communications, owner of Fox affiliate WDRB (channel 41) and Salem, Indiana–licensed MyNetworkTV affiliate WMYO (channel 58), for the provision of certain services. WBKI-TV's transmitter was located in Raywick, Kentucky. In 2014, all of WBKI-TV's operations were consolidated at WDRB and WMYO's shared studio facility on West Muhammad Ali Boulevard (near Route 150) in downtown Louisville. Previously, WBKI-TV maintained separate studios at the Kaden Tower on Dutchmans Lane in Louisville's Bowman section (along I-264/US 60/Henry Watterson Expressway), while the WDRB/WMYO facilities only housed WBKI-TV's master control and some internal operations. Even though WBKI-TV broadcast a digital signal of its own, the station's broadcasting radius did not reach the northern portions of the Louisville market, particularly on the Indiana side. Therefore, the station was simulcast over WMYO's digital subchannels in order to reach the entire market. Following the sale of WBKI-TV's spectrum in the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)'s incentive auction, WBKI-TV ceased broadcasting on October 25, 2017 (with its license canceled on October 31); its channels are now broadcast solely through WMYO (which assumed the WBKI-TV call sign on February 12, 2018) on that station's license. History In 1980, local businessman William "Billy" Speer, doing business as Green River Broadcasting, applied for a broadcast license to launch a television station in the Campbellsville area; the construction permit was issued sometime in 1981. The station first signed on the air on July 27, 1983, as WGRB, for Green River Broadcasting. It originally operated as an independent station, serving mainly rural areas on the far southern fringe of the Louisville market, and portions of the newly formed Bowling Green market. The intention Speer had in launching the station was to give the area's inhabitants a "voice" in the media in an area where a local television station wasn't available in the area; Louisville's VHF stations provided a Grade B signal to Campbellsville proper, but some television viewers in the area would have to rely mostly on cable television service to view network-affiliated stations in Louisville, Bowling Green or Lexington. Without a network affiliation, syndicated programming played a huge role in the station's broadcast schedule. The station's first studio and transmission facility was
