Television and Radio Company charged that KGEO wanted to "straddle" its transmitter between Enid
|
83_85
|
and Oklahoma City to serve both cities, as between 75% and 85% of television set owners in the Enid
|
83_86
|
area owners had oriented their home antennas to receive signals from Oklahoma City and the new
|
83_87
|
tower would provide improved reception in Enid by allowing the signal to propagate into the area at
|
83_88
|
the same direction that these home antennas were aimed, a claim Streets denied. Republic management
|
83_89
|
expressed concern that KGEO's move to the Crescent site would create unfair competition that could
|
83_90
|
hamper the station's already untenable financial situation.
|
83_91
|
Petitions by Republic Television and Radio to set aside the recommendation to grant of the
|
83_92
|
transmitter application and to reopen the record and call attention to the issues the move would
|
83_93
|
cause was denied by the FCC on December 15, 1955. (The agency later granted the Streets transmitter
|
83_94
|
relocation request in a 6–1 vote on May 4, 1956.) That same day, KTVQ suspended operations under
|
83_95
|
court order from the Western Oklahoma District Court "until a VHF channel [assignment was] made
|
83_96
|
available to it"; the FCC—was considering a proposal to allocate a minimum of three commercial VHF
|
83_97
|
channels in all major markets—did not act on KTVQ's request, resulting in the station being forced
|
83_98
|
to cease transmissions. Station representatives asked the FCC for special temporary authorization
|
83_99
|
to operate on VHF channel 11—which had been assigned to Tulsa as a non-commercial educational
|
83_100
|
allocation—until the Oklahoma Educational Television Authority (OETA) could sign on KOED-TV, a
|
83_101
|
satellite of its Oklahoma City flagship KETA-TV (channel 13), intending to broadcast over the
|
83_102
|
transmitter facility of the then-recently defunct KMPT. Governor Raymond D. Gary was among those
|
83_103
|
who supported the proposal; in contrast, OETA and the Joint Committee on Educational Television
|
83_104
|
filed objections to the request, contending that the proposal was "tantamount to scrapping the
|
83_105
|
whole table of educational television assignments". Sales and acting manager Troy Hoskins stated
|
83_106
|
the station's shutdown had resulted in about 80% of ABC's programming lineup being unavailable to
|
83_107
|
Oklahoma City viewers.
|
83_108
|
The FCC refused the STA request on February 1, 1956; KTVQ management re-submitted the STA request
|
83_109
|
for channel 11 on May 11, with the intent to operate the station on that channel either through the
|
83_110
|
remainder of the term of the construction permit or until OETA—which had withdrawn its opposition
|
83_111
|
to temporary use of the Tulsa channel—was ready to sign on KOED-TV. The station's fate was
|
83_112
|
ultimately sealed when the request was rejected for the second time on July 5, 1956. ABC
|
83_113
|
programming subsequently returned to WKY-TV as a secondary affiliation (KGEO-TV displaced WKY as
|
83_114
|
the network's Oklahoma City affiliate when it moved its operations and changed its city of license
|
83_115
|
from Enid to Oklahoma City in 1958).
|

|
Current history of UHF channel 25 in Oklahoma City
|
83_117
|
On July 25, 1958, the Republic Television and Radio Company donated the construction permit and
|
83_118
|
license to Independent School District No. 89 of Oklahoma County (now Oklahoma City Public
|
83_119
|
Schools), while the company was in the midst of protracted hearings regarding KTVQ's bankruptcy.
|
83_120
|
Although the FCC reserved the UHF channel 25 allocation in Oklahoma City for commercial
|
83_121
|
broadcasting purposes, the school district proposed upon acquiring the permit to operate it as a
|
83_122
|
non-commercial educational independent station. The district requested for KOKH-TV—the base of
|
83_123
|
which assigned at the time to its public radio station on 88.9 FM (now KYLV)—to be assigned as the
|
83_124
|
television station's call letters. KOKH signed on the air on February 2, 1959, with programming
|
83_125
|
originally consisting of instructional and lecture-based telecourse programs developed in
|
83_126
|
cooperation with the Oklahoma State Department of Education for college credit attribution.
|
83_127
|
The school district—citing that operating expenditures outran any benefits and its inability to
|
83_128
|
raise $350,000 in matching funds to replace its existing transmission tower—sold the station for
|
83_129
|
$3.5 million to Blair Broadcasting (a subsidiary of New York City-based John Blair & Co.) on
|
83_130
|
December 14, 1978; Blair later converted KOKH into a general entertainment independent station on
|
83_131
|
October 1, 1979, initially carrying a mix of feature films, cartoons, classic sitcoms, religious
|
83_132
|
programs, some sports programming, and certain network programs preempted by NBC affiliate KTVY
|
83_133
|
(channel 4, now KFOR-TV), ABC affiliate KOCO-TV (channel 5) and CBS affiliate KWTV (channel 9) to
|
83_134
|
carry local or syndicated programming. KOKH became a Fox affiliate on August 15, 1991, as a result
|
83_135
|
of the Oklahoma Educational Television Authority (OETA)'s purchase of the network's Oklahoma City
|
83_136
|
charter affiliate, KAUT (channel 43, now an independent station), which became a PBS member station
|
83_137
|
as a companion to OETA flagship station KETA-TV (channel 13). (, KOKH-TV is currently owned by the
|
83_138
|
Sinclair Broadcast Group.)
