WNCF, ABC 32, is an ABC-affiliated television station, broadcasting on UHF channel 32 from Montgomery, Alabama. Its transmitter is located in Hayneville, Alabama. The station is owned by SagamoreHill Broadcasting and is the flagship of that group which is also based in Montgomery.

History

Channel 32, originally WCCB-TV, had its original broadcast on March 12, 1964. The call letters were later changed to WKAB-TV. It was the third station in Montgomery, after WSFA and WCOV. (A fourth station, Selma's WAKA-TV, moved into the Montgomery market in the 1980s.) The station has always been an ABC affiliate, though it has gone through several owners (Bahakel Communications and Media General, among others). The callsign has changed twice after it became WKAB-TV: to WHOA-TV (for "Heart of Alabama") in 1989, and WNCF (for "Where News Comes First") in 1999. The latest callsign change coincided with a short-lived return to the local news race.

News

As WKAB, the station had newscasts branded as "WKAB-TV News". After the call letters were changed to WHOA, the newscasts were branded as "NewsWatch 32".

An evening newscast was added in 1994, but was eventually cancelled due to low ratings against the VHF stations (WSFA and WAKA).

An abbreviated newscast, currently airs at 10:00 p.m on weeknights. A morning call-in show, "Good Morning Montgomery", airs weekdays from 5:30-7:00 a.m. It has aired for over 15 years.

ABC 32 also has a "Spot Team" who are featured in promotions and advertisements.
