Talk:KIKU

Article name
I have moved this article back to KIKU from KIKU-TV. Consensus on both WP:NC and Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Television_Stations is that the article name should reflect the actual call letters of the TV station. As can be seen here: the call letters for this station are in fact KIKU. Any concerns regarding this topic would be best addressed here: Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Television_Stations. &mdash;A 04:58, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

Move from KHAI to KIKU?
Would someone please write a paragraph explaining how KHAI 20 became KIKU 20? KHAI carried Japanese subtitled TV shows. I have several old video tapes of KHAI recordings, and by the content of them I suspect they were recorded in the late 1980's. There is a huge gap in the origin section on what happened to KIKU between the late 1980s and early 1990s, and the KHAI/KIKU information may be in the middle of it. Groink 23:22, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

CW network
I once again removed mention of the CW network concerning KIKU's competitors. In previous edits, there seems to be several editors who are really upset over KIKU dropping CW. For any announcements concerning CW, it should be made at its Wiki article and not KIKU. Groink 01:08, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

Infomercials
Why is informercials such a bad thing, as one editor just recently indicated. Many TV stations practice this. FYI, it is requirement by the FCC for all TV stations to set a majority of their programming airtime for "original" programming. Informercials is considered original programming by the FCC, AND is also bring in a lot of revenue to the TV station. So I would not consider this valid criticism, but rather it is a trend that we all must get used to. Groink 08:50, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

Good point. By saying they lack "real" programming I just meant that entertainment fare (dramas, game shows) and news tends to make up a very limited portion of their schedule. I'll delete that comment. Dayspassions91 (talk) 10:22, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

Digital Transition
KIKU turned off its analog signal on January 15, 2009 and is digital-only. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.21.106.150 (talk) 19:52, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
 * This isn't special to KIKU. All TV stations in Hawaii turned off their analog signal on January 15. Groink (talk) 21:00, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
