Channel 29 in DFW (KTXA, KPFW, KNAV)
The FCC's database is a bit of a mess regarding the use of RF channel 29 in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area. As a result there are several errors in the TVFool results:

Thanks for the updates!
I believe this swap between KTXA and KPFW has already happened. I think it took place late last month or early this month. This change is already set to take effect during the next database update cycle. Do you believe that KNAV is currently on the air on channel 12? It seems like that would conflict with KXII. If anyone can confirm that KNAV-LD is on the air, we can add it to the database. We will remove the defunct analog record in the next update. |
I live in DFW & just double-checked. KTXA & KPFW have not yet swapped channels; KTXA is still broadcasting on RF 18 & KPFW is still on RF 29.
At one time the swap was scheduled for this Sept. However, KTXA & sister station KTVT recently applied to modify the construction permits for their permanent facilities. I don't know if this will affect the swap schedule. I do not believe KNAV is currently broadcasting on either RF 12 or RF 22. (The RF 12 CP does specify a directional antenna that would minimize interference with KXII.) |
Finally!
At long last, KTXA (virtual channel 21.1) will move from RF 18 to RF 29 at noon this Friday. KPFW (virtual channel 18.1) will move the opposite direction, from RF 29 to RF 18.

Great to hear. Thanks for the update!

Well, naturally there's been a delay due to the cold and wet weather we've been having: http://dfw.cbslocal.com/2011/01/04/t...gnal-strength/
So the switch hasn't happened just yet, but should happen "real soon now." |
