WPRU-LP, UHF analog channel 20, was a low-powered ABC-affiliated television station licensed to Aguadilla, Puerto Rico. The station was owned by the Caribbean Broadcasting Network.
History
The channel was launched in 2004.
The station did not provide their own local newscasts, but rather a simulcast of WABC-TV's Eyewitness News.
In September 2014, it was announced that ABC would move to WORA-TV on November 1, 2014.[1]
The station has been silent since January, 2014. From that point until the ABC affiliation ended, it continued broadcasting on channel 18.1 of sister station WSJP-LD. At some point on March 20, 2015, WSJP-LD removed its simulcast of WORA-DT2/ABC 5 from 18.1 and moved its third subchannel to 18.1 from 18.3 to replace it.
The station's call-sign has been deleted from the FCC database. They carried the entire primetime schedule provided by ABC.
