As you can see, KTBY and KTVA were pretty much the only two stations in Alaska to go 24 hours a day by 1992, though I'm thinking the former station was the first.

Over here in Fairbanks, we got company as KFXF in Fairbanks signed on around that time. Prior to that, the Foxnet channel on cable was our only source for Fox programming.
