WAPE-LD

WAPE-LD was a Movies! owned-and-operated station licensed to serve the Cape May, New Jersey area. It was owned by Weigel Broadcasting at the time of its sign off. 
== History ==
WAPE signed on the air on October 8, 2008 as an affiliate of ShopNBC. At the time, the station used the call letters W25BD-D, and was not carried on any local cable systems. The station was one of the few to still sign off, a practice which had largely ended in the late 1990's; between 2 am and 6 am on Saturdays, color bars would be seen on the channel. ShopNBC decided to not renew their contract with Confection Broadcasting, the station's former owner, for 2011.
On the second day of 2011, Confection sold the station to Tribune Broadcasting, making it an Antenna TV owned-and-operated station. The station's call letters were changed to the current WAPE-LD, meaning Cape May. Tribune also boosted its signal to reach southeastern Pennsylvania, central Delaware, and south-central New Jersey.
In 2015, the station was sold to the E.W. Scripps Company, who changed its affiliation once again to Grit. E.W. Scripps decided to sell the station one year later.
In July 2016, WAPE became an affiliate of Movies!, a network owned by Weigel Broadcasting, who bought the station from E.W. Scripps. Subchannels were also added to the station, which, at the time, were Heroes & Icons and Decades. 
WAPE-LD signed off the air at midnight on August 23, 2021. Movies! and Heroes and Icons were added as a subchannel on TCN affiliate WSJT. This TV and The Local AccuWeather Channel are now unseen in South Jersey,
