'''WUWF FM-3:''' On September 26, 2011 WUWF FM-3 was launched with a radio reader format. This third channel broadcasts SightLine for the visually impaired which features a 24-hour schedule including daily readings of the Pensacola News Journal, locally produced children's stories, and Gate Wave radio for the visually impaired.
'''WUWF-TV:''' WUWF-TV, launched in 2003, can be seen on Cox Cable Channel 4 in Pensacola and Escambia County, Florida, and in a live 500 kbps stream at the station's website, wuwf.tv. A variety of programming is supplied in the daytime through 11 pm on weekdays. The station features original programming and features from the Classic Arts Showcase and Deutsche Welle.
'''History:''' WUWF was founded in 1981 by the late Dr. Thomas K. Perry, and has served the Pensacola and NW Florida communities for the past thirty years. Working with a core staff of multi-talented professionals and hundreds of volunteers, WUWF has approximately 65,000 listeners. With the cutback of federal funding in the 1990s, WUWF began a course as a true listener supported station. Today, it operates largely with contributions from local individual listeners with additional support from locally based businesses. Only a small portion of the station's operating budget comes from state and federal grants. The University of West Florida also provides funds, mainly for facilities upkeep and utility bills.
