Digital television
Because it was granted an original construction permit after the FCC finalized the DTV allotment plan on April 21, 1997 [1], the station did not receive a second (companion) channel for a digital television station. On January 15, 2009, KKAI flash-cutted to a digital signal on the same channel.
