WHOI (TV)

WHOI (channel 19), known as MyTeam, is an independent television station in Peoria, Illinois, United States. It is owned by Gray Media alongside WEEK-TV (channel 25), an affiliate of NBC, ABC and The CW Plus. The two stations share studios and transmitter facilities on Springfield Road (along I-474) in East Peoria.

Channel 19 is the second-oldest TV station in Peoria, beginning broadcasting as WTVH on October 18, 1953. Operating from facilities in Creve Coeur, it was a primary affiliate of CBS until the end of 1957, when it shifted to ABC. The station traded hands several times from the 1960s to the 1980s. When it was co-owned with WIRL radio from 1965 to 1971, it was known as WIRL-TV; after its acquisition by Forward Communications, it changed call signs to WRAU-TV. It was the typical second-place finisher in local news ratings behind WEEK-TV until the station was struck for 219 days by members of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers from December 1982 to July 1983, thereafter falling into a fight with WMBD-TV for third place.

Relaunched in 1985 as WHOI—as part of a promotional campaign linking it to the "heart of Illinois"—the station went through continued corporate and staff turnover, never rising above second place in the ratings and more frequently sinking to third. WHOI ran the area's cable-only outlet of The WB and later offered a subchannel affiliated with The CW. In 2009, then-owner Barrington Broadcasting entered into a pact with Granite Broadcasting, then-owner of WEEK-TV, to consolidate the two stations' operations under Granite management. In 2016, WEEK-TV acquired the ABC and CW affiliations from WHOI, leaving channel 19 to broadcast digital multicast television networks. In 2025, the WHOI license was transferred to Gray in a trade with Sinclair Broadcast Group, and channel 19 was relaunched with its present mix of sports-related programming, MyNetworkTV syndication, and newscasts from WEEK.
