WVXF, virtual and UHF digital channel 17, is a dual Cozi TV/Fox-affiliated television station serving the United States Virgin Islands that is licensed to Charlotte Amalie, Saint Thomas. Owned by Caribbean Broadcasting Network, it is a sister station to low-powered NBC affiliate WVGN-LD (channel 19). WVXF's transmitter is located on Signal Hill.

The station broadcasts Fox programming in high definition on its second digital subchannel, with Cozi TV on the main channel in standard definition; this is a quirk of the Fox subchannel's former analog home of WEON-LP, which had a high definition simulcast placed on WVXF-DT2 until the station went dark in order to consolidate Caribbean Broadcasting Network's Virgin Islands operations onto WVXF.

Viya Cable carries WVXF-DT2 on channel 6, and WVXF-DT1 on channel 9. WVXF is also available in Puerto Rico on Liberty, and as part of the Puerto Rico locals package on Dish Network.
