KTSS-LP
KTSS-LP was a low-powered community television station broadcasting from Hope, Arkansas on channel 50. The station was viewable throughout much of southwestern Arkansas with an over-the-air digital broadcast antenna and was also available on local cable television providers throughout the region. The channel aired a wide variety of local shows which it produced, as well as paid religious programming and infomercials.
KTSS also occasionally served as a secondary Ion Television affiliate for the area.
The station was founded in 1994 by Kevin McKinnon and the non-profit group Christian Community Television. McKinnon and Sandra May purchased the station's assets in 1998 to operate the station commercially as Hope Television, Inc. McKinnon and May sold KTSS-LP to Greg Bobo and Joyce Bobo in 2002. The station closed permanently in March 2017. From 2001 to 2005, KTSS aired rebroadcasts of NBC affiliate KTAL-TV's 6 P.M. and 10 P.M. newscasts with the newscast being replayed on KTSS at 6:30 P.M. and 10:30 P.M.
