WSFA is the NBC-affiliated television station for Central Alabama's Black Belt region licensed to Montgomery. It broadcasts a high definition digital signal on VHF channel 12 from a transmitter in Grady along the Montgomery/Pike County line. Its studios are located on Delano Avenue in West Montgomery. The station can also be viewed on cable television, with Knology and Charter channel 11. A high definition feed is offered on Charter digital channel 711 and Knology digital channel 903.The station boasts one of the largest coverage areas in Alabama, providing at least secondary coverage from the geographical center of the state to the Florida state line and from the Black Belt region to the Chattahoochee River bordering Georgia.[2]
Local programming includes WSFA's major commitment[2] – regional and local news – with shows such as Alabama Live, WSFA 12 News First at 4, WSFA 12 News at 6, and WSFA 12 News at 10. The station also broadcasts national news with The Today Show and NBC Nightly News. Syndicated programming on WSFA includes Entertainment Tonight, Judge Joe Brown, Judge Judy, and The Insider.
WSFA is owned by the locally based Raycom Media, which has headquarters downtown at the RSA Tower. WSFA is one of Raycom's two flagships, alongside CBS affiliate WBTV in Charlotte, North Carolina.
WSFA was formerly the default NBC affiliate for Dothan and the Wiregrass Region, which had been one of the few areas without an NBC affiliate of its own. That status ended when Gray Television, which owns WTVY in Dothan, launched WRGX-LD as a NBC affiliate on June 1, 2013
