WLLS-LP was a low-power television station in Indiana, Pennsylvania, broadcasting locally on channels 49 and 65 as an affiliate of America One. The station was founded December 24, 1991 by Larry L. Schrecongost, who operated it until his death in June 2010. WLLS-LP was co-owned with radio stations WNCC and WRDD.
Originally classed as a low-powered repeater, WLLS-LP achieved Class-A status in early 2000, after the owner planned on including local and children's programming on its schedule.[citation needed] In February 2012, the station was warned by the FCC that they would be stripped of their Class-A status, after failing to file proper paperwork in relation to its children's programming since 2005.[citation needed]
On April 17, 2012, the FCC cancelled the license of WLLS-LP, after determining that the lack of submitted paperwork equated to the station having gone dark for at least 21 months, placing the approximate closure date in July 2010.[1]
