KEET-TV ADDS DTV TRANSLATOR
Eureka, CA – To better serve the entire North Coast community, on Aug. 8, KEET poured the foundation for a new digital tower located in Smith River.
This new digital tower will serve Brookings-Harbor, Ore., and Crescent City.
The Eureka-based PBS station is installing a 12,000-watt ultra-high-frequency digital translator, which will duplicate programs broadcast on KEET-TV’s current Eureka digital signal.
As part of the project, KEET is constructing a 132-foot tower to hold the antennas, which should be completed by late August.
The translator, which will actually receive and then transmit KEET-TV’s signal in Del Norte and Curry counties, should be in operation by October.
