KSA-TV, broadcasting on cable systems on channel 4, was an NBC- affiliated television station located in Sitka, Alaska, United States. It was the first local television station in Sitka, operating between 1959 and 1983. It was also an affiliate of the NTA Film Network. History KSA-TV launched on November 15, 1959, at 6 p.m., as the first television station of any kind in Sitka. It was owned by a company known as Sitka Alaska TeleVision; the majority shareholder, Ketchikan Alaska TeleVision, operated the similar "KATV" in Ketchikan, which had gone on the air before any broadcast stations in Anchorage, Fairbanks, or Juneau. KSA-TV continued to broadcast into the early 1980s. In 1980, McCaw Cable acquired the Sitka cable system and KSA-TV. NBC programs remained on channel 4, though the KSA-TV moniker was abandoned.

KATV (Alaska)
KATV ("Ketchikan Alaska Television") was a cable television service in Ketchikan, Alaska Territory, United States. It was established in November 1953 (six years before statehood) and was the first television service of any kind in Alaska. History R. D. "Chuck" Jensen and Wally Christiansen started KATV in 1953 with the goal of bringing television to Ketchikan, then a town of about 5,000 people. At the time the system was announced in July, Alaska Territory had no broadcast television stations, and it was not expected that there would be one before the end of the year; consequently, KATV announced its programming would consist of films and kinescopes supplied from the mainland. Leasing space on power poles from the local public utilities board, the first pictures from the system went out on November 17, 1953. In large part thanks to a slew of technical difficulties at KFIA (channel 2), one of two television stations under construction at Anchorage, this made KATV Alaska's fir ...

Cable Television
Cable television is a system of delivering television programming to consumers via radio frequency (RF) signals transmitted through coaxial cables, or in more recent systems, light pulses through fibre-optic cables. This contrasts with broadcast television (also known as terrestrial television), in which the television signal is transmitted over-the-air by radio waves and received by a television antenna attached to the television; or satellite television, in which the television signal is transmitted over-the-air by radio waves from a communications satellite orbiting the Earth, and received by a satellite dish antenna on the roof. FM radio programming, high-speed Internet, telephone services, and similar non-television services may also be provided through these cables. Analog television was standard in the 20th century, but since the 2000s, cable systems have been upgraded to digital cable operation. A "cable channel" (sometimes known as a "cable network") is a tele ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Television, sometimes shortened to TV, is a telecommunication medium for transmitting moving images and sound. The term can refer to a television set, or the medium of television transmission. Television is a mass medium for advertising, entertainment, news, and sports. Television became available in crude experimental forms in the late 1920s, but only after several years of further development was the new technology marketed to consumers. After World War II, an improved form of black-and-white television broadcasting became popular in the United Kingdom and the United States, and television sets became commonplace in homes, businesses, and institutions.
