KMBD-LD is a low-powered digital television station that is licensed to and serving Minneapolis, Minnesota. The station is a Bounce TV network affiliate owned and operated by DTV America Corporation of Sunrise, Florida. The station broadcasts their digital signal on UHF channel 43 from atop the IDS Center. [1]
History
The station signed on the air as K67HG on October 5, 1998. The station broadcast on UHF analog channels 35 (as K35CY) and 67. It moved to UHF analog channel 43 after the callsign was changed to K43HB in 2007. The station was an affiliate of the Home Shopping Network from its 1998 inception until 2014, when DTV America acquired the station from Ventana Television. The station converted to digital in January of 2012, remaining on channel 43 as a digital station, with a 15,000 watt signal. On November 17, 2014 DTV America changed the station callsign to the current KMBD-LD. [1] DTV America converted KMBD as a satellite station of former TBN owned-and-operated station KJNK-LD, retransmitting Telemundo programming on its main channel, and Doctor Television Channel, and eventually Sonlife Broadcasting Network programming on KMBD-LD2 simulcasting with KJNK-LD2.
In January 2016, KMBD-LD and KMBD-LD2 were converted to affiliates of Bounce TV and Escape affiliates, respectively, and a third digital subchannel was launched to serve as a Laff network affiliate, thereby making KMBD-LD a separate station again after more than a year as a satellite of KJNK-LD.[2]
