Television station in California, United States
KHTV-CD , virtual channel 6 (UHF digital channel 22), is a low-power , Class A MeTV+ owned-and-operated television station licensed to Los Angeles, California , United States. The station is owned by Chicago -based Weigel Broadcasting . KHTV-CD's transmitter is located at the Mount Harvard Radio Site in the San Gabriel Mountains .
Due to its low-power status, KHTV-CD's broadcasting radius does not reach all of Greater Los Angeles. Therefore, it must rely on cable and satellite carriage to reach the entire market .
History [ edit ]
The station was founded on October 22, 1993. It signed on as K38EA on channel 38, before moving to channel 48 as KHTV-LP , starting in 2000 as an affiliate of now defunct Home Shopping en Español, later rebranding to HSE (a Spanish-language channel operated by parent channel Home Shopping Network ) until HSE ceased operations in June 2002. When KOCE launched its digital signal on channel 48 in 2001, this displaced KHTV-LP to channel 67. It stayed on channel 67 until December 31, 2011, when the last of the LPTV stations still using out-of-core channels 52-69 had to vacate that spectrum. In 2012, KHTV-LP converted to digital as KHTV-LD and moved to channel 27. On July 11, 2012, the station received class A status and changed its call sign to KHTV-CD . In 2019, as part of the repack, KHTV-CD moved to its current channel 22 allocation, channel sharing with MeTV owned-and-operated station KAZA-TV .
The KHTV call letters were originally used by an unrelated full-power station in Portland, Oregon on channel 27, and in Houston, Texas on channel 39 .
On February 28, 2022, KHTV-CD discontinued carrying Jewelry Television on 6.1 and replaced it with MeTV Plus . With this change, 6.1 was converted to 720p HD. All remaining subchannels carried by KHTV-CD were removed. MeTV Plus had been on KAZA 54.3 since its expansion to Weigel-owned stations in September 2021.
