Duluth Station Adds More Channels, Seeks Power Increase

Posted on March 15, 2021 by Jon Ellis

A month after adding a second channel, a Duluth TV station has added two more.

Radiant Life Ministries/Tri-State Christian Television’s KCWV (Duluth) is now carrying Grit on 27.3 and Bounce on 27.4. That’s in addition to TCT on 27.1 and Sonlife Broadcast Network on 27.2.

KCWV’s signal coverage area is much smaller than other Duluth stations, only reaching parts of the metro area due to a relatively-low 40kW power level and a highly-directional antenna.

A pending application seeks to increase power to 62.5kW, move the antenna slightly higher on its tower, and reorient the directional antenna to reach more of the Duluth-Superior metro.

TCT bought KCWV last year.
