Spanish-language nets as digital subchannels

It's been discussed around here before about RTV and other small nets being used as subchannels, but how about Spanish-language ones? In the Tyler/Longview market, there have been no local Spanish stations, and probably little chance of any coming. Now, in the last few months, 3 of the major affils have signed up Spanish-speaking nets among their subchannels:

KLTV 7.1 ABC / 7.3 Telemundo
KYTX 19.1 CBS / 19.3 Azteca America (includes locally-produced news)
KETK 56.1 NBC / 56.3 EstrellaTV (coming soon)

Prior to now, all the Spanish-speaking population of the market had for TV to watch was the national feed of Univision on local cable systems.

Yes indeed for Hartford/New Haven! WUVN-DT channel 18-3 is Telefutura. We still have WRDM-LP channel 50 here as well. However, they are a low-power analog Telemundo affiliate.
 
Another national network missed:

TBN stations that carry the full lineup feature Spanish-language TBN Enlace on the x.4 subchannel.


In Arizona, Las Vegas NV and El Centro CA:

Univision
KFPH 13.2 Flagstaff
KFTU 3.2 Douglas

(Both are primary Telefutura stations)

Telefutura
KTVW 33.2 Phoenix
KUVE 46.2 Tucson
KINC 15.2 Las Vegas

(All are primary Univision stations)

Telemundo
KECY 9.3 El Centro

(KECY has Fox on 9.1 and ABC on 9.2)

Also:

Yuma has full-service stations for both Univision and Telefutura. Both broadcast in 480i and neither has more than the primary subchannel.
Estrella TV is not on KTTU yet in Tucson.
