KDYW was a television station in Waco, Texas. The station was owned by the Brazos Valley Broadcasting Foundation. The station (as KCTF and KWBU-TV) operated as a PBS member station for much of its on-air history, but was slated to be sold to Community Television Educators of Waco, Inc., a group associated with the Daystar Television Network, before surrendering its license. ==History== The station began in 1978, when Central Texas College's KNCT set up a low-powered translator on channel 34 in Waco, as a way to bring PBS programming to the city. Until then, cable systems in the area piped in both KNCT and KERA-TV in Dallas. After a long effort to bring a local PBS station to Waco, on May 22, 1989 it was upgraded to a full-powered station, KCTF, with the ability to produce local programming. That station replaced KNCT on cable systems in and around Waco. In 1994, Central Texas College transferred control of KCTF to the Brazos Valley Broadcasting Foundation, a community group formed a year earlier. In 1999, Baylor University took control of the foundation, changing the call letters to KWBU-TV a year later. In 2003, KWBU activated its digital signal on channel 20, becoming the first Central Texas station to air a digital signal. KWBU's analog transmitter was damaged in late January 2009. With the impending shutdown of analog broadcasting in the United States, the station opted to shut off its analog broadcasts and air solely in digital on February 3--two weeks before the other major stations in Central Texas went digital-only. However, through PSIP, the station's signal remapped to its former analog channel 34. In the Waco area, it aired on cable channel 4 on Time Warner Cable and Grande Communications. KWBU-TV's digital signal offered the following subchannels: 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「KDYW」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
