KBGH is an US full-service educational television station serving Filer and Twin Falls, Idaho, and the surrounding Magic Valley. It provides over-the-air service on analog channel 19 from its transmitter on Flat Top Butte near Jerome. KBGH is owned and operated by College of Southern Idaho of Twin Falls, Idaho and exists strictly as a means of providing telecourses and distance learning.
[edit] History
An original construction permit for a full-service station was granted to the College of Southern Idaho on November 3, 1992. Its original callsign was the application ID, 920210KE, but changed to KBGH on May 14, 1993. Although it was to be a full-service station, its permit specified a low-power 75.9 kW ERP signal. The station commenced broadcasting July 6, 1999. KBGH was granted a permit to construct a digital television station on February 22, 2001. As of August 2006, KBGH-DT has not yet licensed their digital facilities, nor is there any evidence that a digital signal is on the air yet.
[edit] Programming
The College of Southern Idaho uses KBGH solely as a means of delivering telecourses to students. When the station is not broadcasting a telecourse, it has no programming at all -- only a blank picture is transmitted [1].
