WMNS-LD (channel 22) was a low-power independent television station serving the United States Virgin Islands that was licensed to Charlotte Amalie, Saint Thomas. It was owned by V.I. Christian Ministries, Inc. and operated by Innovative Communications Corporation alongside cable-only channel TV2. WMNS-LD's transmitter was located atop Hawk Hill.

History

The station was founded on October 17, 2001, as K22GA. It gained the WMNS-LP callsign on December 22, 2003.

Prior to July 13, 2009, WMNS-LP broadcast Daystar programming. However, after CBS programming moved from WVXF to the cable-only channel TV2, WMNS-LD provided over-the-air coverage for TV2.
