WKCF, virtual channel 18 (UHF digital channel 17), is a CW-affiliated television station serving Orlando, Florida, licensed to Clermont. The station is owned by the Hearst Television division of the Hearst Corporation, and is part of a duopoly with NBC affiliate WESH (channel 2). The two stations share studios on North Wymore Road (along I-4) in Eatonville (with a Winter Park address) and its transmitter is located in unincorporated Bithlo.
During the George Zimmerman trial in 2013, WKCF's second digital subchannel, in addition to This TV, was used to carry NBC Daytime and WESH's daytime syndicated programming to accommodate trial coverage on WESH.
WKCF terminated its analog signal, on UHF channel 18, on June 12, 2009, as part of the federally mandated transition from analog to digital television. The station's digital signal remained on its pre-transition UHF channel 17. Through the use of PSIP, digital television receivers display WKCF's virtual channel as 18. WKCF was one of three stations in the Orlando area (along with WKMG-TV and WOFL) to participate in the "Analog Nightlight" program, which lasted until WKCF's analog transmitter was shut down permanently on July 12, 2009.
When we go
I'm falling down to the river
I'm gonna climb another mountain
I'm going down to the mountain
I'm coming up from below
I'm gonna climb as high as I can
I ain't got no other place to go
Down to the river
I'm going down to the river
I'm going to spread myself around
I'm going down to the river
Spread myself around
