The station is owned by HME Equity Fund III, LLC. WMJF-CD's transmitter is located on Maryland Route 45 near the Towson Town Center mall. HistoryTowson University established W61BT in 1991 as a student television station. In the mid-1990s, the station served as the local affiliate for The WB, until it moved to WNUV in January 1998. After a brief stint as an America One affiliate, WMJF flipped to MTV2 in 2004. WMJF was also a CNN student bureau, one of only two in the country. WMJF was a 90% student run organization, operated under faculty advisers Dr. John MacKerron and Dr. David Reiss, and an executive board of five elected and appointed positions that they deemed necessary to help operate the station. Towson University sold WMJF-LP to LocusPoint Networks in December 2012.[1] The deal closed on August 8, 2013. LocusPoint then sold WMJF-CD to HME Equity Fund III on April 8, 2018. Towson University continued to operate the station until 2019. Programming and operations are handled remotely via satellite feed. Digital channelsThe station's digital channel is multiplexed:
ProgrammingWMJF-produced programming was generally seen weekday evenings from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m., and Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday nights from 9 p.m. to midnight.

WMJFNowWMJFNow was launched in August 2006, after a beta run the previous spring. The program is run using Google Video. WMJFNow is the creation of webmaster and station president, Christopher Taydus with help from many station members including Josh Eisenberg, Joe Achard and Diego Torres. It was created to help find a new audience for the station. Taydus was quoted as saying, "I have a friend who goes to Northeastern who has been watching our sitcom Film School. We've even had guys from other countries watching."[3] When asked about the numbers that some shows were receiving, Josh Eisenberg said, "In the college television market those are incredible numbers to be receiving. It used to be just a five-mile radius, and now anyone can see it."[3] Half-Way There FestivalThe Half-Way There Festival is an annual film festival sponsored and hosted by WMJF. It was created by Josh Eisenberg with help from Christopher Taydus and Professor Greg Faller. It is held every December and gets its name from the fact that it's held half way between the previous and the next Media Arts Festival (Towson University's Electronic Media and Film Department's Annual Film Festival). WMJF-TV lets the audience vote to choose the winners. Lambda Kappa Tau, Towson's Media Arts Fraternity, took over the festival in Fall 2008. WMJF.tv launchedThe student-run television station WMJF-TV was relaunched as an internet-only service, WMJF.tv, in 2013 under General Manager and Faculty Advisor Dr. Dave Reiss - utilizing the internet as the means for broadcasting student-produced programming via a newly designed website. The new Media Center HDTV studio, now utilizing virtual sets, was fully integrated into the productions. Coverage of campus news and events continue, along with new programming including alumni profiles. Spectrum reallocationAs a part of the repacking process following the 2016-2017 FCC incentive auction, WMJF-CD will relocate to UHF channel 23 by 2020, using PSIP to display its virtual channel number as 39.[4] References1. ^{{cite news|last=Seyler|first=Dave|title=LocusPoint again demonstrates it’s a Class A Act|url=http://rbr.com/locuspoint-again-demonstrates-its-a-class-a-act/|accessdate=December 16, 2012|newspaper=Television Business Report|date=December 13, 2012}} 2. ^RabbitEars TV Query for WMJF 3. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.thetowerlight.com/media/storage/paper957/news/2006/11/16/Technology/Technology.Briefs-2463210.shtml?norewrite200612131158&sourcedomain=www.thetowerlight.com|title=Technology Briefs|date=November 16, 2006|publisher=The Towerlight|accessdate=2006-12-13}}{{dead link|date=June 2016|bot=medic}}{{cbignore|bot=medic}} 4. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.nab.org/repacking/clearinghouse.asp|title=Searchable Clearinghouse {{!}} National Association of Broadcasters|website=www.nab.org|language=en|access-date=2018-05-28}} External links
