WTOK-DT2 is the MyNetworkTV-affiliated television station for Meridian, Mississippi. The station is a second digital subchannel of ABC affiliate WTOK-TV owned by Gray Television. Over-the-air, it broadcasts a standard definition digital signal on VHF channel 11.2 from a transmitter south of Meridian on Crestview Circle (along MS 145/Roebuck Drive) in unincorporated Lauderdale County. Known on-air as myTOK2, the station can also be seen on Comcast channel 2. Syndicated programming on WTOK-DT2 includes Family Guy, Two and a Half Men, Friends and Family Feud among others. Overnight, it airs paid programming from Jewelry Television.
WTOK-DT2's parent station has studios on 23rd Avenue in Meridian's Mid-Town section. The station signed-on in early 2006 as the market's first locally based Fox affiliate. Known on-air as "Fox Meridian", it could also be seen on Comcast channel 10 and in high definition on digital channel 434. WTOK had previously served as a partial Fox affiliate in the mid-1990s carrying NFL broadcasts as well as selected Fox programming in late night time-slots. Otherwise, access to the network was provided through its national service Foxnet and WDBB in Tuscaloosa, Alabama on cable.
