WAST-LP
WAST-LP (channel 25) was a low-power television station in Ashland, Wisconsin, United States.

WAST-LP sold local advertising specifically for the Ashland area, preempting KBJR-DT2's advertising breaks. Since 1997, WAST-LP had been owned by Superior Water Logged Lumber. It struggled financially. A 2001 attempt to sell the station to ESI Broadcasting Corporation of Montana failed; ESI hoped to combine the station with KDUL-LP, a UPN affiliate. The station then went off the air. In December 2005, Hank Martinsen and Julie Nuutinen put WAST-LP back on the air. The station featured two daily newscasts focusing on Wisconsin-area news. It had news sharing agreements with KBJR-TV and KUWS radio in Superior. The effort was short-lived. On May 2, news director Julie Mo ...
