Apparently, KFXK is currently installing equipment on their tower near Overton for their full power HD signal. A friend sent an email to KTYL asking them why their signal has been so intermittent the last couple of weeks. Here was the reply:
"Thanks for letting us know. We are told that the tower work should be finished today. We rent tower space from FOX 51, and they are having to do work to install equipment so that they can broadcast in HD. Since we rent the tower space from them we are pretty much at their mercy when they have to do maintence."
KTYL has been having to periodically move their signal over to the KKTX tower south of Kilgore to make way for the KFXK tower work.
