dbo:abstract
  • WJXX (channel 25) is a television station licensed to Orange Park, Florida, United States, serving the Jacksonville area as an affiliate of ABC. It is owned by Tegna Inc. alongside NBC affiliate WTLV (channel 12). Both stations share studios on East Adams Street (near TIAA Bank Field) in downtown Jacksonville, while WJXX's transmitter is located on Anders Boulevard in the city's Killarney Shores section. Though plans for an Orange Park television station dated to 1977 and the construction permit to 1988, it took upheaval in the city's ABC affiliation to induce the construction of channel 25, which began broadcasting in February 1997. The launch was two months ahead of schedule; final transmission facilities were not built out for another seven months, and signal issues alienated viewers in Jacksonville, a market already comparatively weak for the ABC network. Even though the founding owner, Allbritton Communications, built studios and started a local news team, WJXX made little headway in the ratings. As a result, it sold WJXX to WTLV just as common ownership of two stations in a market was permitted, with the two stations consolidating at WTLV's studios in 2000 and beginning to simulcast nearly all local newscasts under the name First Coast News.
