Template talk:Palm Springs Area TV

We should note that Los Angeles TV stations are available for cable subscribers and on satellite, but these are over-the-air stations and/or low-power translators. KWHY-TV and KMEX-TV, Spanish-language TV had a translator for the Palm Springs area, but I don't have further information. Due to its geographic location, Mexicali TV of the US-Mexican border is easily received in the eastern Coachella valley and Imperial Valley TV signals before the digital conversion was received on the VHF dial (KECY, KYMA and KSWT). San Diego channel 4SD and Orange County KOCE (PBS) are available on cable, one can watch the Padres games as well Orange County-oriented programming. + 71.102.3.86 (talk) 16:55, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

Local TV history
There was over-air TV simulators in the Coachella Valley in the 1960s and 70s. Channels 70 (KFMB-CBS San Diego), 71 & 79 (KABC-ABC L.A.), 72 & 74 (KCBS-CBS L.A.), 73 (KGTV-NBC/ABC San Diego), 75 & 78 (KNBC-NBC L.A.), 76-also 33 (KECY ABC/CBS-El Centro), 77 (XETV-ABC San Diego) and 81-also 14 (KVCR-PBS San Bernardino). Also there was 14 (KMEX-Spanish-L.A.) and 52 KBLU (ABC/CBS/NBC-El Centro). They were served with better quality visual and audio on cable than over-air and this paved the way for local KPLM (now KESQ) and KMIR to go on the air in 1968. 67.49.89.214 (talk) 23:16, 12 March 2017 (UTC)
