I just did a search on the FCC site for Fort Myers:

http://www.fcc.gov/fcc-bin/tvq?state...&slon2=&size=9

Now this list includes construction permits and applications as well as active stations, so it may indicate transmitters that are not on the air yet. The list is full of active links, so you can get all kinds of info about any station, including coverage maps.
hope this helps,
jr

Update: the FCC sez that WINK transmits on ch 9 (11 might be the virtual channel that they use for identification purposes) no matter if it is ch 9 or 11, it is still high band VHF not UHF. They also seem to have a construction permit for channel 50, so possibly they are be using that UHF channel now.
If you can do a scan the TV should indicate both the real over-the-air channel, as well as the virtual channel.

Update 2: Well, wiki sez that WINK indeed broadcasts on ch 9, so that's gotta be correct :
