About KASA-TV
Full-power stations are the main licensed broadcasters in a market. They may run the highest power from the tallest towers and are protected from interference, so they set the core of what you can receive.
At 369 kW effective radiated power, KASA-TV runs more power than 55% of full-power TV stations nationwide (median: 273 kW).
Its antenna sits 1,290 m above the average surrounding terrain, higher than 100% of full-power stations. Taller antennas see farther: this one's radio horizon is roughly 100 miles, beyond which the signal fades quickly.
We estimate a fair-or-better signal out to about 106 miles with an outdoor antenna. That area includes 71 cities and towns in our guide with about 1,110,000 residents, as far as Santa Fe, NM (44 miles).
KASA-TV shares its transmitter site with KQDF-LD, KASY-TV, KWBQ (CW), KAZQ, KTVS-LD and KOAT-TV (ABC) and 13 more. One antenna aimed at this site picks up all of them.
The nearest other Telemundo station in our data is KTDO in Las Cruces, NM, 236 miles away. Viewers between the two can sometimes receive both.
Telemundo is a Spanish-language broadcast network with telenovelas, news, entertainment and major soccer coverage. It is one of the two largest Spanish-language networks on U.S. antenna TV.
