About KTKB-LD
Low-power (LPTV) stations serve a local area at reduced power. They have secondary status, which means they must not interfere with full-power stations and can be displaced by them.
We estimate a fair-or-better signal out to about 16 miles with an outdoor antenna. That area includes 19 cities and towns in our guide with about 178,000 residents, as far as Yigo Village, GU (5.3 miles).
KTKB-LD shares its transmitter site with KTGM (ABC), KEQI-LD (Fox) and KGTF. One antenna aimed at this site picks up all of them.
The nearest other CW station in our data is KHON-TV in Honolulu, HI, 3,800 miles away. Viewers between the two can sometimes receive both.
The CW is a commercial broadcast network carrying entertainment series and a growing slate of sports. In smaller markets it often runs as a subchannel of another station rather than its own transmitter.
