WLMB (channel 40) is a religious independent television station in Toledo, Ohio, United States, owned by Dominion Broadcasting. The station's studios are located on Capital Commons Drive in Toledo, and its transmitter is located in Jasper, Michigan.

01History

The station's first call sign was issued as WXAE-TV on July 17, 1992. It adopted its current call sign on May 17, 1994. However, the station did not commence broadcasting until October 18, 1998.

WLMB was an affiliate of Pax TV/i from 2000 to 2006, but the station only carried selected original and religious programming.

On October 2, 2024, WLMB moved its signal from VHF channel 5 to UHF channel 35.
