Sublette- High Plains Broadcasting, L.L.C. announces a new “Free” Digital TV station that will add to the existing 11 channels of over-the-air free Digital TV in Southwest Kansas. This additional “Free TV” station, called TV23 (Call sign: “ KDGL ”) is now operating from its main Studio and Transmitter in Sublette, KS; with additional transmitters at Dodge City, Garden City, Liberal, and Ulysses, Kansas to help extend the range of the station to most of Southwest Kansas and portions of the Oklahoma Panhandle. TV23’s final construction began in October 2012 with all stations transmitting as of February 2013. TV23 began operating in late 2012, allowing some viewers to watch a variety of programs including the Mormon Tabernacle Choir Christmas Specials that was aired on Channel 23-6.

TV23 is a Digital TV Station that can only be viewed with a Digital TV, or with an Analog TV using a Digital Convertor Box. Viewers may watch TV23 from any of its five transmitters within about a 10 mile range using a set top antenna (rabbit ears), or within a 40+ mile range using an outdoor rooftop antenna. It will be necessary to re-scan your Digital TV Set or Digital Tuner Box to receive the new free over-the-air signal.
