WBFF had announced in September 2015 that test broadcasts would begin in Baltimore and Washington, D.C. for ATSC 3.0 (dubbed "Futurecast") via a two-transmitter SFN with one transmitter in each city on UHF 43 delivering 4K UHDTV and mobile feeds to viewers. This station, named WI9XXT, began experimental broadcasts on August 24, 2015, and the Special temporary authority ends on February 25, 2016. WI9XXT's broadcasts are from WRC-TV's tower in the northwest section of Washington, and from WBFF's tower in Woodberry, Baltimore.
