WBDT is the CW-affiliated television station for Ohio's Miami Valley. Licensed to Springfield, the station broadcasts a high definition digital signal on UHF channel 26 from a transmitter in the Frytown section of Dayton. The station can also be seen on Time Warner Cable channel 13 and in high definition on digital channel 1013. WBDT is the default CW affiliate for Lima, Ohio; that area had been previously served by a cable-only affiliate until early 2010. Owned by Vaughan Media, WBDT is operated by Media General and is sister station to WDTN. The two stations share studios on South Dixie Drive in Moraine (though their mailing address is Dayton).
The station began analog operation on UHF channel 26 on January 6, 1968 as independent WSWO-TV, under the ownership of Southwestern Ohio Broadcasting. WSWO-TV ran a local live version of Bozo the Clown (portrayed by announcer Dave Eaton, who was previously with the former WKTR-TV in Kettering, now public station WPTD), as well as other local shows. The station suddenly went dark on March 6, 1970, possibly due to financial difficulties.

Many were called
But the chosen are few

We rise to the top
