History
The station's construction permit was granted on May 17, 2011 under the callsign W19DS-D. The current WDSF-LD call letters were adopted on December 13, 2013.
On December 20, 2013, DTV America announced that WDSF, along with two other stations (
WCZU-LD in
Bowling Green, Kentucky and
KPJO-LD in
Joplin, Missouri), would become affiliates of MyNetworkTV, with programming from another service filling slots outside prime-time. While WCZU and KPJO chosen
Antenna TV, WDSF opted for
Doctor TV.

WCOV-TV is currently the Antenna TV affiliate for Central Alabama.)
Doctor TV is also seen full-time on subchannel 19.2.
This would also be a return of MyNetworkTV to Central Alabama, since
WRJM's disaffiliation from the network in 2009. Since then, most Central Alabama cable viewers watched MyNetworkTV via
Birmingham affiliate
WABM.
In 2015, the
Sonlife Broadcasting Network became available on a third digital subchannel. It was replaced by
Sony Pictures Television's

DrTV's full-time schedule on the second subchannel was replaced by
FremantleMedia's
Buzzr network. In 2017, the main channel's secondary affiliation was changed to
AMGTV (and by 2018,
