==History== |
|||
The license was initially established in 1978 as translator K63AY by Pompey Mountain Broadcasting in [[Mullin, Texas|Mullin]]. It was displaced to channel 17 as K17GH. |
|||
The station was originally an affiliate of [[LAT TV]], a [[Houston, Texas|Houston]]-based Spanish-language television network that launched in May 2006; however, the network folded 2 years later in 2008. |
|||
In December 2010, the station's call letters changed from KVAT-LP to '''KVAT-LD'''. |
