KBNT-CD, virtual channel 17 (UHF digital channel 25), is a Univision-affiliated television station located in San Diego, California, United States. The station is owned by the Entravision Communications Corporation, and is a sister station to MyNetworkTV affiliate XHDTV-TV (channel 49), UniMás affiliate KDTF-LD (channel 51) and Telemundo affiliate XHAS-TV (channel 33). All four stations share studio facilities located on Ruffin Road in San Diego's Kearny Mesa section; KBNT-CD maintains transmitter facilities located on Mount Soledad in La Jolla. The station's signal is relayed on low-powered KTCD-LP (channel 46) in San Diego and KHAX-LP (channel 49) in Vista. ==History== Founded on February 14, 1989, the station first signed on the air in 1992 as K17DI, broadcasting on UHF channel 19. Its transmitter facilities were originally based on Palomar Mountain, some north of the center of San Diego. The station's original facilities were located in San Diego's Mira Mesa neighborhood. At that time, San Diegans could receive the station only through cable television, because its weak broadcast signal could not reach the city proper. Eventually, the station increased its transmitting power, effectively boosting its signal; while still not reaching San Diego proper, it could be picked up in Escondido, San Marcos, Vista and Fallbrook. In 1994, K17DI reached an agreement with NBC affiliate KNSD (channel 39, now an owned-and-operated station) to retransmit its programs on KNSD-LP (channel 62) in La Jolla, and some years later on channel 17 in National City, allowing the signal to reach San Diego, National City and Chula Vista. The original signal on UHF channel 19 went off the air (the allocation is now used by the digital signal for Fox affiliate KSWB-TV (channel 69)), retaining the signal on channel 17, and adding another secondary repeater, KHAX-LP (channel 49), in northern San Diego County. The channel 62 signal, KNSD-LP, has since left the air; it is unknown when KNSD-LP ceased operations. That signal was leased to Entravision by KNSD owners Station Venture Operations, L.P. (operated as a joint venture between NBCUniversal and LIN Media until LIN dropped out of the venture in February 2013). In the fall of 2008, KBNT-CD expanded again to a three-repeater operation, when KTCD-LP switched from being a repeater of Telemundo-affiliated sister station XHAS-TV (channel 33) to being a repeater of KBNT. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「KBNT-CD」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
