KTVC is an RTN-affiliated television station serving the Eugene, Oregon area. The station is licensed to Roseburg. It can be seen over-the-air on UHF channel 36, with its digital signal on UHF channel 18. Viewers in the Eugene area can see KTVC on Comcast cable channel 12 or on translator KAMK-LP on channel 53. It is owned by Equity Broadcasting.
Despite being part of the Eugene DMA, the station's signal does not reach Eugene on KTVC 36, but on translator KAMK-LP 53; its transmitter, also located in Roseburg, covers only the central portion of Douglas County.
[edit] History
The station began broadcasting on March 13, 1992, under the call sign KLSR-TV. It changed its calls to KROZ in July 1994 and changed it to the current KTVC in September 1998.
KTVC became an affiliate of Equity's Retro Television Network effective September 2006, when the UPN and WB television networks ceased broadcasting. A newly-created digital subchannel of NBC affiliate KMTR will carry the CW Television Network, a merger of the two disbanding networks' programming assets, while current independent KEVU-LP will affiliate with My Network TV, a new network from News Corporation, the parent company of Fox.
The KTVC calls were previously used on what is now KBSD-TV in Ensign, Kansas, from 1957 to 1989.
[edit] Programming
Presently, the station airs the RTN schedule, along with a few first-run syndicated shows (The Jerry Springer Show, Blind Date), off-network sitcom reruns, low-rated programming, and paid programming until 2:30 p.m. on weekday afternoons. During the overnight hours, the station airs programming from Jewelry TV.
