'''WDWW-LD''', [[virtual channel|virtual]] and [[UHF]] [[digital terrestrial television|digital]] channel 28, is a [[Low-power broadcasting#Television|low-power]] [[CBN News]]-[[network affiliate|affiliated]] [[television station]] [[city of license|licensed]] to [[Cleveland, Georgia]], United States. The station is owned by [[DTV America|DTV America Corporation]]. Its [[broadcast transmitter|transmitter]] is located on [[Horsetrough Mountain]] on the western part of the [[White County, Georgia|White]]/[[Hall County, Georgia|Hall]] county line northwest of [[Clermont, Georgia|Clermont]], and covers almost as far as [[Blairsville, Georgia|Blairsville]], [[Toccoa, Georgia|Toccoa]], and [[Cumming, Georgia|Cumming]].

==History==
Prior to 2016, it was owned by Richard & Lisa Goetz of [[Hendersonville, Tennessee]], who applied for the station in 2000 and were granted a permit in mid February 2004 as '''W28CV''', which they changed the [[broadcast callsign]] of two weeks later, well before [[sign-on|going on-air]].

Its digital companion was '''WDWW-LD''', a [[construction permit]] issued far to the southwest to serve [[Atlanta, Georgia|Atlanta]] on channel 7. This station began transmission from [[Sweat Mountain]] in early September 2009, but ceased a few months later. The station used a [[directional antenna]] which sent the signal in an arc from south (toward Atlanta) to northeast (toward Cumming, the only slight overlap it had with its analog [[broadcast range]]). It had a wide and total [[null (radio)|null]] toward the west and northwest in order to protect [[Alabama Public Television]] station WCIQ television at [[Cheaha Mountain|Mount Cheaha]], thus it did not even reach nearby [[Woodstock, Georgia|Woodstock]], with which it had a direct [[Line-of-sight propagation|line of sight]].

The station later had this permit cancelled and instead applied for and received in early November 2010 a permit to make a [[flash cut]] on channel 28, while moving the station into Atlanta but at a different location than before. It will now be located on the east [[radio tower|tower]] at the [[list of Atlanta broadcast stations by location#North Druid Hills|North Druid Hills site]], along with many other TV and FM stations. Unlike the original digital companion channel, this permit retains Cleveland as its city of license instead of Atlanta. The [[height above average terrain]] will be {{convert|318|m|ft|0|sp=us}} versus {{convert|254|m|ft|0|sp=us}} on Sweat Mountain. The [[effective radiated power]] will be 15&nbsp;kW instead of 300 watts, respectively about 0.3% and 0.1% of what is allowed for full-power stations on [[UHF]] and [[band III|high VHF]]. The station was licensed for digital operation on November 28, 2017, and changed its call sign to WDWW-LD.<ref name=dtv>[https://www.rabbitears.info/market.php?request=print_station&facility_id=125861 Digital TV Market Listing for WDWW-LD]</ref>
