In 2007, WRDW added an HD2 subchannel, carrying non-stop dance music under the moniker "Hot Wired." The music and imaging was similar to co-owned Miami rhythmic station WPOW's HD2 channel, now defunct. In 2012, the format changed to foreign language programming as "VDC Radio". In May 2013, Hot Wired returned, while VDC moved to WXTU-HD3. "Hot Wired" was later renamed "WirEDM," referring to Electronic Dance Music (or "EDM"). In 2015, the WirEDM name was phased out with the rebranding to AMP Radio, with the HD2 subchannel rebranding as "Pulse." The format aired mainly dance music from 2005-2012 with a few current songs in the mix. In November 2017, the HD2 format flipped to acoustic rock with a few alternative songs mixed in as "Alt 96.5 HD2". A year or two later, the format was shifted to a more traditional Alternative Rock playlist similar to its sister stations in New York, 92.3 FM WNYL, and in Dallas, 103.7 FM KVIL. In August 2019, WTDY-HD3 began airing programming from "Channel Q," Entercom's Talk/EDM service for the LGBTQ community. Previously, it aired a travelers' information loop as "Hear Philly."
