We currently broadcast with an FCC-approved low power digital signal.  It is broadcast on VHF channel 7 from a tower located in Sioux Falls near the intersection of I-29 and Louise.

If you are using an antenna that receives only UHF channels you will have a hard time picking us up.  The best way to pick up a station is to point your antenna at the station you wish to receive.

Is KTTW Fox 7 affiliated with ThisTV?

Yes...ThisTV (digital channel 7.2) is a secondary station of your local Fox affiliate.  An Additional note regarding ThisTV...due to a recent upgrades to our equipment some over-the-air viewers are no longer able to get ThisTV/7.2.  If you are one of these persons affected please take the following steps:

1) Disconnect your antenna from your tuner (television converter box).

2) Run a channel scan.

3) Unplug your tuner and leave unplugged for several minutes.

4) Hook your antenna cable back into your tuner.

5) Plug your television or converter box back in and perform another channel scan.

This should clear your tuner's memory and allow it to see the new values in our subchannel's information.  If this does not work please feel free to call KTTW Engineering at 605-338-0017 for more details.

Is FOX broadcast in digital?

Yes.  KTTW is broadcasting an FCC-authorized full power signal. We broadcast our digital signal on VHF channel 7, so you will need a receive antenna capable of receiving VHF signals. If you have a converter or a digital TV you may have to re-scan your converter box or TV to receive KTTW's digital signal.

Yes. KTTW has finished the the installation of our new transmitter southwest of Rowena, SD, five miles east of Sioux Falls..  KTTW is now broadcasting full power D-TV signal as of October 21, 2008 from our new tower  This puts us near the other networks' digital broadcast transmitters.  You will still need a VHF antenna to pick up the KTTW digital signal.
