WCLF online - Television live

WCLF Live Stream

WCLF is the flagship station of the Christian Television Network - CTN's channel 22 in the Tampa Bay market, licensed to Clearwater and broadcasting from studios in Largo since 1979. The station that launched a network now carried from coast to coast on satellite and a chain of owned-and-operated stations, it broadcasts Christian programming around the clock, and its programming also streams live online.

CTN's mission statement has barely changed since the beginning: to produce and broadcast programming to teach and encourage Christian living. Founder Robert D'Andrea, who built the network from Tampa Bay and ran it until his death in January 2022, left behind a broadcast group that reaches from Florida across the country.

The Network's Flagship

From channel 22, CTN grew into an American non-profit network of small owned-and-operated stations - from Tampa Bay to Tulsa, Las Vegas to Nashville, New Orleans to the Rocky Mountains - with national satellite carriage on DirecTV channel 376, Dish Network channel 262 and Glorystar. WCLF remains the operation's flagship: the station where the network's programs are produced, the transmitting plant that started it all, and the anchor of a broadcast footprint that now includes a United Kingdom service and a Spanish-language sister network, CTNi, carrying the same message in another language.

Programming from Largo

The schedule is classic CTN: national ministries and teachers alongside the network's own original productions, made at the Largo studios for the whole chain. The in-house lineup ranges from talk and teaching to music and lifestyle - programs like Bridges, the Christian Music Countdown, In the Kitchen with Gigi and even Tightline Fishing, the outdoors show that put CTN's stamp on one of Florida's favorite pastimes - alongside national program services from ministries across the evangelical world.

Studios on 142nd Avenue

The station's facilities on 142nd Avenue in Largo double as the network's production home - studios, post-production and the operations behind CTN's station group - with the transmitter near Riverview carrying channel 22 across the bay. For a market that stretches from Clearwater to St. Petersburg to Tampa, WCLF is the local signal of a network built here, and the live stream and the network's digital platforms now carry the same programming to viewers far beyond the transmitter's reach - the flagship of a Florida-grown Christian network, still on the air from the market where it started.
