Since 1992 CTV has brought basic television service to the area - NBC, ABC, CBS, PBS and more. Over the past 30-plus years CTV has continued to grow and offer more digital options to its subscribers.
Today around 50 channels are available at each tower location in Godahl, Frost and Jackson. Now most of these channels are broadcast in high-definition digital, but UHF signals can be susceptible to atmospheric conditions/weather. CTV charges $8 a month. CTV is a low-cost option for local TV channels.
Going through a satellite provider costs more than $70 a month. In addition, over-the-air is a great way to receive digital signals.
