Dark (broadcasting)
In the broadcasting industry, a dark television station or silent radio station is one that has gone off the air for an indefinite period of time. Usually unlike dead air (broadcasting only silence), a station that is dark or silent does not even transmit a carrier signal. U.S. law Transmitter operations According to the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC), a radio or television station is considered to have gone dark or silent if it is to be off the air for thirty days or longer. Prior to the Telecommunications Act of 1996, a "dark" station was required to surrender its broadcast license to the FCC, leaving it vulnerable to another party applying for it while its current owner was making efforts to get it back on the air. Following the 1996 landmark legislation, a licensee is no longer required to surrender the license while dark. Instead, the licensee may apply for a "Notification of Suspension of Operations/Request for Silent STA" (FCC Form 0386), stating the reas ...

KTVE (Texas)
KTVE, UHF analog channel 32, was an independent television station licensed to Longview, Texas, United States that operated from 1953 to 1955. KTVE was one of the first television stations in east Texas. However, its use of the quickly outmoded UHF, and the arrival of a VHF station in the form of KLTV (channel 7), made continued operation unviable, and the station closed on Christmas Day 1955. History The East Texas Television Company, headed by appliance store owner Arlington James Henry, filed for newly allocated UHF channel 32 in June 1952, two months after the Federal Communications Commission lifted the four-year freeze on new television stations. Ground was broken in March 1953 on KTVE's studio-transmitter complex, located on land owned by Henry on then-State Highway 26 between Kilgore and Longview (now State Highway 31). Construction was completed that October, when channel 32 began broadcasting a test pattern ahead of its first day of operations on October 25. It was the ...

KETX (TV)
KETX was a television station on channel 19 at Tyler, Texas, that operated between September 1953 and October 1954. It was the first television station in East Texas and the first UHF station in the entire state; however, its operation was fraught with technical and financial difficulties, and the coming of a VHF station, KLTV, was an existential threat to the smaller UHF outlet, causing its closure. History Jacob A. Newborn applied for a television station on channel 19 in Tyler in November 1952. Newborn also owned KBMT at Beaumont and held a permit to build a station in Gadsden, Alabama. Plans for the station included studios in Tyler and Longview as well as a larger studio at the transmitter near Gladewater. Facility construction climaxed in July with the deliveries of the transmitter and the antenna; a month before, the two-story transmitter and studio building at Gladewater had been erected in just three days. Limited programs began to air on September 19, 1953, though the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Ponta, Texas
Ponta (pronounced pahn-TAY) is a small unincorporated community in eastern Cherokee County, Texas (USA). According to the Handbook of Texas, the community had a population of 50 in 2000. It is located within the Tyler-Jacksonville combined statistical area. History Ponta was originally known as Donaho and was founded in 1901 on the H. Donaho survey. When the Texas and New Orleans railroad bypassed it, the community was abandoned. The Ponta townsite was established on the railroad by brothers W.T. and L.D. Guinn, along with W.T. Norman. Hubbard Guinn surveyed the land and named it Hubb. Robert Montgomery moved his store from the abandoned Donaho and became postmaster in 1903. He renamed the settlement Ponta for the many bridges that crossed over Mud Creek, since "ponta" is the Latin word for "bridge". A bank was then established, and other businesses followed, such as a gin and crate factory owned by B. Everett, a general store owned by Joe Bailey, Redden's Drugstore, and the Brazie ...

Route description SH 110 begins at an intersection with US 84 and Loop 62 in downtown Rusk and leaves the courthouse square north with US 84, crossing US 69 on its way to a split on the northeast side of Rusk where US 84 goes off east and SH 110 turns north, out of town. The road intersects with SH 204 in Ponta. The road intersects with U.S. Highway 79 in New Summerfield before crossing the county line into Smith County as it enters Troup.

Texas State Highway Loop 323
Loop 323 is a state highway loop in Texas in the United States. It is a highway circling the city of Tyler in Smith County. History On November 20, 1951, Farm to Market Road 1803 (FM 1803) was established as a bypass from US 271 northeast of Tyler, to SH 64 east of Tyler. On October 29, 1953, FM 845, was created as another bypass around the north side of Tyler, covering from SH 31 to US 271 and the northern end of FM 1803. On October 26, 1954, the route of FM 845 was extended (but apparently not constructed) about south and east around Tyler and then northward to intersect with the southern terminus of FM 1803. On December 3, 1954, FM 845 was merged into FM 1803, so that the route, once completely constructed, would have a single highway designation. On October 30, 1957, with its southern portion now under construction, FM 1803 was redesignated as Loop 323. The southern portion was to be designated as Loop 323 upon completion, while the northern portion — the original se ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
East Texas
East Texas is a broadly defined cultural, geographic, and ecological region in the eastern part of the U.S. state of Texas that comprises most of 41 counties. It is primarily divided into Northeast and Southeast Texas. Most of the region consists of the Piney Woods ecoregion. East Texas can sometimes be defined only as the Piney Woods. At the fringes, towards Central Texas, the forests expand outward toward sparser trees and eventually into open plains. According to the ''Handbook of Texas'', the East Texas area "may be separated from the rest of Texas roughly by a line extending from the Red River in north-central Lamar County southwestward to east-central Limestone County and then southeastward towards eastern Galveston Bay". Most sources separate the Gulf Coast area into a separate region. Another popular, somewhat simpler, definition defines East Texas as the region between the Trinity River, north and east of Houston (or sometimes Interstate 45, when defining generou ...

Television Station
A television station is a set of equipment managed by a business, organisation or other entity, such as an amateur television (ATV) operator, that transmits video content and audio content via radio waves directly from a transmitter on the earth's surface to any number of tuned receivers simultaneously. Overview Most often the term "television station" refers to a station which broadcasts structured content to an audience or it refers to the organization that operates the station. A terrestrial television transmission can occur via analog television signals or, more recently, via digital television signals. Television stations are differentiated from cable television or other video providers in that their content is broadcast via terrestrial radio waves. A group of television stations with common ownership or affiliation are known as a TV network and an individual station within the network is referred to as O&O or affiliate, respectively.
