In 1986, WAPT changed their logo to a golden bold square shape 16, which appears to be very similar to WAFB's "square 9" logo.

The Futura "16" has been used by the station since 1997, with minor design changes along the way.

In mid-1997, WAPT changed their look from a square to a circular 16. At that time, WAPT was sold to Argyle Holdings, Inc. (later Hearst-Argyle Television from August 1997 until 2009; now Hearst). Same variant also used by KHBS/KHOG at same period.
