in Atlanta) TJ Holmes – anchor/reporter (2000–2003; later at CNN, now with ABC News) B. J. Sams – anchor (1982–2009) Technical information Subchannels The station's digital signal is multiplexed: Analog-to-digital conversion KTHV shut down its analog signal, over VHF, channel 11, on June 12, 2009, the official date in which full-power television stations in the United States transitioned from analog to digital broadcasts under federal mandate. The station's digital signal remained on its pre-transition VHF channel 12. Through the use of PSIP, digital television receivers display the station's virtual channel as its former VHF analog channel 11. As part of the SAFER Act, KTHV kept its analog signal on the air until June 27 to inform viewers of the digital television transition through a loop of public service announcements from the National Association of Broadcasters. Out-of-market coverage KTHV, along with Memphis-based WREG-TV previously served as the default CBS affiliate for the Jonesboro, Arkansas media market. Both KTHV and WREG were available on Suddenlink cable, as well as the cable system of Paragould Light Water and Cable in the Paragould area. KTHV was removed on September 1, 2015 from Suddenlink and was replaced by KJNB-LD's DT2 subchannel. However, WREG remains on Jonesboro's Suddenlink lineup.
