==History==
===A family-owned station===
WNDL (-TV) signed on the air on December 13, 1962. As NBC affiliate owned by NDL Electric Company and its flagship station. Its W-prefix is inherited from its radio station (WNDL-AM-FM). It broadcasts NBC programming and hiring a bunch of employees.
In 1981, They launched the first computerized ident and weather radar. Making the first one to convert and use the latest technology.
From 1995, they launched their iconic "13" logo consisting of a sun and skies, with an ocean underneath. It would be either sunrise or sunset, depending on the time their programming broadcast. It was kept by the station until it ceased operation in 2011, to make way for the infomercial station.
===New Owner and License===
WNDL (-TV) signed on the air for the second time on May 1, 2011, as an infomercial station called KNLH. A week after WNDL (-TV) ceased broadcasting. At the time it was owned by Infomercial TV LLC. KNLH was sold to Lake Hill on April 2, 2021. Lake Hill is known for their quick turnaround of newly acquired stations, with infomercial stations becoming fully fledged affiliates within a few months.
===Reborn as WNDL (-TV)===
KNLH became an NBC affiliate on September 1, 2021, replacing the market's former NBC affiliate KSXT-TV, with the station going now with Central. And reverted back to WNDL (-TV), its General Manager Dale Ansin says "Our switch to NBC means something to us, we need to pay a homage to the station's history. That's why we're going back to the past and renaming it as WNDL (-TV), because sometimes we need to go backward before moving forward." And KNLH made a news partnership with WNDL-AM-FM, which made a change into the station. It also moved into its headquarters to WTFH studio in Downtown Nowhere. Shortly after switching to NBC, Lake Hill Broadcasting sold it back to its original owner Ndul Communications. Reuniting WNDL with its radio counterpart after its first sign-off in 2011.
On July 9, 2022. As a part of refurbishing its own identity, WNDL launched a new set of logo, paying homage to its 1995 logo used before its sign-off back in 2011. The new logo also came with a new set of graphics, which its owner going to roll-out sometimes this week.
== Newscasts ==
WNDL (-TV) airs newscasts during the morning, as well as noon, 5pm, 6pm, and 10pm. KNLH has a smaller news staff than other Lake Hill stations, unusual for a start up. The station is known by its tabloid-news concept. The station employs 5 journalists, and has a small news studio (yet the new operator hires more journalists and staffs, increasing it to 28 journalists). The accommodations are temporary, according to Lake Hill, as the station seeks out a bigger studio space. For this reason, production of the newscast, as well as master control, are located at Lake Hill's Newsfix Local Productions in Indianapolis, Indiana before moving to WTFH studio. The station currently shares its news set with WTFH and KNOK.
