Reception notes

  • UHF. KTTU transmits on RF channel 19, in the UHF band (RF 14 to 36).
  • Channel number. Your TV shows it as 18.1 even though the signal is on RF channel 19. A channel scan finds it either way. How to rescan
  • NextGen TV. The FCC does not list KTTU as broadcasting in ATSC 3.0, so any digital TV tuner can receive it.
