KLTJ
Television station in Galveston, Texas
KLTJ (channel 22) is a religious television station licensed to Galveston, Texas, United States, serving the Houston area. Owned by the Daystar Television Network through its Community Television Educators subsidiary, the station maintains transmitter facilities near Missouri City, in unincorporated northeastern Fort Bend County.
01History
The station was originally licensed to Galveston Educational TV, Inc. under the call sign KUYA; it is unknown whether the station ever went on the air under those call letters.
On July 20, 1989, Eldred Thomas moved the KLTJ religious programming inventory and call sign from channel 57 (frequency now occupied by KUBE-TV) to channel 22 to take advantage of an improved coverage area.
Before moving the call letters to Houston, Thomas owned KLTJ (channel 49, now KSTR-DT) in Dallas from 1983 to 1987; it was a sister station to radio outlet KVTT-FM (now KKXT), which Thomas also owned.
