IOWA:
It appears Ottumwa is poised to get an NBC-TV affiliate this fall. New Moon Communications says in a press release to


All Access that it plans to convert low-power station KUMK-LP/42 (Ottumwa) to an NBC affiliate with local news.

The move would give the Ottumwa-Kirksville market a complete set of all four major networks for the first time.


New Moon is buying KUMK and three other LPTV stations outside the Upper Midwest from the Minority Media and Telecommunications Council, which received them as a donation from the Trinity Broadcasting Network. 6/27/2011)

Upper Midwest Broadcasting



Ottumwa Iowa and Kirksville Missouri tv stations
3.1 KTVO ABC Kirksville, MO (33)
3.2 KTVO-2 CBS Kirksville, MO (33)


11.1 KDIN-TVt PBS Des Moines (18)
11.2 KDIN-TV2t Kids/Create Des Moines (18)
11.3 KDIN-TV3t PBS World Des Moines (18)

15.1 KYOU-TV FOX Ottumwa (15)

I've said negative things about Ottumwa on these boards in the past, but in light of this development I take it all back.

It will happen when FCC approves it and all the paperwork is signed.. It does take some time.

Good for Ottumwa.. It's a nice place to live.

In the 1950's all we had was Channel 3 KTVO and we could draw the NBC channel out of Des Moines pretty well. Almost never got an ABC station. But TV has changed so much. Now you have cable, satellite, and you can even get channels over the internet. Even to this day I often prefer radio to television. But as they say variety is the spice of life.

KTVO is an ABC station. Did you mean CBS?
