About KINT-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 1,000 kW effective radiated power, KINT-TV runs more power than 79% of full-power TV stations nationwide (median: 273 kW).
Its antenna sits 439 m above the average surrounding terrain, higher than 62% of full-power stations. Taller antennas see farther: this one's radio horizon is roughly 61 miles, beyond which the signal fades quickly.
We estimate a fair-or-better signal out to about 73 miles with an outdoor antenna. That area includes 36 cities and towns in our guide with about 1,000,000 residents, as far as Las Cruces, NM (40 miles).
KINT-TV shares its transmitter site with KCOS. One antenna aimed at this site picks up all of them.
The nearest other Univision station in our data is KUPB in Midland, TX, 232 miles away. Viewers between the two can sometimes receive both.
Univision is the largest Spanish-language broadcast network in the U.S., carrying telenovelas, news, entertainment and soccer.
