KERA-TV

KERA-TV, virtual channel 13 (digital channel 14), is the PBS member station in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex. Licensed to Dallas, it broadcasts from a transmitter located in Cedar Hill. However, it also serves as the default PBS station for the Abilene, San Angelo and Tyler/Longview/Lufkin/Nacogdoches markets, as well as the Texas side of the Sherman, Texas/Ada, Oklahoma market. None of these areas have full-power PBS stations. It is also available on cable in Hillsboro and Texarkana. Until 1988, KERA could be seen on cable in Amarillo, as that market had no PBS station before the launch there of KACV. The station's programming can also be seen on K44GS-D in Wichita Falls; this repeater provides PBS programming to the Texas side of the Wichita Falls/Lawton market. Since 2003, it has also broadcast a digital signal on channel 14.
