Digital Television
WOFL was the first to start digital broadcasting in the market in February 2000 on WOFL-DT Channel 22. WOFL began broadcasting in 720p HDTV format in September 2004. As part of the analog television shutdown and digital conversion, WOFL shut down its analog transmitter on June 12, 2009, and continued to broadcast on its pre-transition digital channel 22. However, through the use of PSIP, digital television receivers display its virtual channel as 35.
WOFL was one of three stations in the Orlando area to participate in the "Analog Nightlight" program, which lasted through July 12, 2009.

Famous quotes containing the word television:
“Laughter on American television has taken the place of the chorus in Greek tragedy.... In other countries, the business of laughing is left to the viewers. Here, their laughter is put on the screen, integrated into the show. It is the screen that is laughing and having a good time. You are simply left alone with your consternation.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
