KVAT-LD , virtual channel 17 (UHF digital channel 35), is a low-powered Azteca América -affiliated television station serving Austin, Texas , United States that is licensed to Garfield . The station is owned by HC2 Holdings .[1]
History [ ]
The license was initially established in 1978 as translator K63AY by Pompey Mountain Broadcasting in Mullin . It was displaced to channel 17 as K17GH.
The station was originally an affiliate of LAT TV , a Houston -based Spanish-language television network that launched in May 2006; however, the network folded 2 years later in 2008.
In December 2010, the station's call letters changed from KVAT-LP to KVAT-LD .
In June 2013, KVAT-LD was slated to be sold to Landover 5 LLC as part of a larger deal involving 51 other low-power television stations;[2] the sale fell through in June 2016.[3] Mako Communications sold its stations, including KVAT-LD, to HC2 Holdings in 2017.[4]
Satellite provider DirecTV has yet to carry this station as the Austin markets Azteca affiliate. It continues to carry KAZD from Dallas instead.
