In June 2013, K51JF was slated to be sold to Landover 5 LLC as part of a larger deal involving 51 other low-power television stations;[1] the sale fell through in June 2016.[2]
The station was issued its license for digital broadcasting on channel 17 on August 29, 2017, changing its call sign to K17MJ-D.
