Arizona TV Station Update - June 2014

dhett

dhett

As always, questions, additions, comments and corrections welcome.

Programming changes

  • KPHE-LD 44.x Phoenix (Lotus TV of Phoenix, LLC) has added late-night infomercial programming on 44.1 and 44.2 after source station XEWH 6 Hermosillo SON goes off the air. The station has rebranded the subchannels as SíTV.

Transactions

  • KTVK 3.x (24) Phoenix (Sander Operating Co. II) has been approved to transfer ownership of the station to KPHO Broadcasting Corporation and the sale has been consummated. The following KTVK and KASW translators are also included:
    • K11LC-D Prescott (KTVK)
    • K38AI-D Cottonwood (KTVK)
    • K15HY Williams-Ash Fork (KTVK)
    • K25MG-D Flagstaff (KTVK)
    • K14NA-D Globe & Miami(KTVK)
    • K34EE-D Prescott-Cottonwood (KASW)
    • K41JE Williams-Ash Fork (KASW)
  • KASW 61.x (49) Phoenix (Sander Operating Co. II) has been approved to transfer ownership of the station to SagamoreHill of Phoenix Licenses, LLC. The sale has been consummated.

Construction permits and Special Temporary Authorizations granted

  • K14KK-D 8.x Flagstaff (Arizona Board of Regents for ASU) has been granted a construction permit to increase power from 0.1 kW to 0.63 kW. Technical specifications: Ch 14; TL 35-14-26 N, 111-35-48 W (Mt. Eldon TV Hill site); ERP 0.63 kW directional; HAAT 585 m.

Construction permits and Special Temporary Authorizations requested

  • KTVP-LD 22.x Phoenix (Mako Communications, LLC) has requested a displacement change to channel 25, presumably due to excessive interference from KNAZ-TV in Flagstaff. I guess interference from co-channel KMSB (25) Tucson and from adjacent Phoenix channels KTVK (24) and KUTP (26) is expected to be less of a problem. If the channel change is approved, KTVP will almost certainly abandon its construction permit to increase power from 5 kW to 15 kW on channel 22, and it's safe to say that they gave up on moving to channel 14 after the FCC offered it to KPPX if they would abandon channel 51. And no, despite the change in community of license, the station is not planning a move to Las Vegas - that was a typo. Technical specifications: Ch 25; TL 33-19-58 N, 112-3-59 W (South Mountain); ERP 5 kW directional; HAAT 460 m.
