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.

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).

Kilowatt
The watt (symbol: W) is the unit of power or radiant flux in the International System of Units (SI), equal to 1 joule per second or 1 kg⋅m2⋅s−3. It is used to quantify the rate of energy transfer. The watt is named after James Watt (1736–1819), an 18th-century Scottish inventor, mechanical engineer, and chemist who improved the Newcomen engine with his own steam engine in 1776. Watt's invention was fundamental for the Industrial Revolution. Overview When an object's velocity is held constant at one metre per second against a constant opposing force of one newton, the rate at which work is done is one watt. : \mathrm In terms of electromagnetism, one watt is the rate at which electrical work is performed when a current of one ampere (A) flows across an electrical potential difference of one volt (V), meaning the watt is equivalent to the volt-ampere (the latter unit, however, is used for a different quantity from the real power of an electrical circuit). : ...

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.

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 ...
