WATCh: KNPB's Digital Minutes
WATCh: KNPB's Digital Minutes


KNPB digital TV has been on the air in northern Nevada since September 2000. With a digital television receiver and a simpleantenna, you can receive KNPB digital channels over the air. If your digital set is also capable of receiving high definition, you can even receive high definition programs with this simple set-up. And KNPB has never looked so good as it does on KNPB HD! You can also watch KNPB digital channels on your current analog TV, but you’ll need a DTV tuner “box.”

KNPB digital channels are also available on Charter Cable service as follows: KNPB II on Charter 225 and KNPB HD on Charter 785. KNPB V-me, programming in Spanish, is available on Charter 226 and will be added as an over-the-air service in early 2009. KNPB II and KNPB HD are currently unavailable through Dish Network or Direct TV (please contact your satellite provider and request they air these channels).
