KFTY ~ R . I . P. ~

More good stuff at dukeandbanner dot com. This is the final moments of KFTY-50 as they signed off at midnite for the last time. The ending shows how much Clear Channel could care less about broadcasting.

Hate to break it to you guys but KFTY is still broadcasting ...Just no longer broadcasting an analog signal...just like all other broadcast stations across the nation. Oh and it is thankfully no longer owned by Clear Channel but a company called Newport.

Yes, Cheap Channel no longer owns KFTY. Yes, this video marks the death of their analog signal only.

However, depending on your location and/or equipment, KFTY may actually be gone for good.

I live about 40 miles from the transmitter site, and can't pick up KFTY-DTV. Yet I can pull in a far away S.F. stations if I aim the antenna correctly.

Similarly, Comcast™ moved KFTY from channel 10 to channel 199. I don't have a tuner that will turn up that high.

But then there's KFTY's programming...

Thanks for posting. An ignoble end for a television station that once had a fine reputation for local programming.

[broduke2000]

Ignoble....wait a minute, I have to get my dictionary....ignoble....ignob le....oh, here it is! Ignoble: "characterized by baseness, lowness, or meanness."

Used in a sentence: My radio partner Bob is ignoble. Oh man, that fits him like a glove!

Thanks!!

Maybe. When Trump tells his lower-ups: "You're fired!"
