Tower Collapse Takes Neb. TV Translator Off Air

Posted on April 15, 2019 by Jon Ellis

A translator carrying ABC and FOX to the north-central Nebraska town of O’Neill is off the air after a tower collapse.

KHGI-TV reports that the tower, home to KHGI-LD/27, collapsed during a blizzard last week.

The 518-foot tower is owned by Three River Communications, a local cable and internet provider, and was 22 years old.
