KJTV-CD is a companion station to FOX 34 (KJTV-TV) and is known as FOX 34 News NOW. It was founded in 2001 as a low-powered Class A AccuWeather Channel affiliate. It is unique because it is broadcast on two channels in the Lubbock area, channel 32.1 in HD and is rebroadcast in SD on channel 34.2 of KJTV-TV. It is carried on many area cable systems such as Suddenlink (Channel 9 SD, 109 HD), AT&T U'verse (channel 32 in SD and HD) and NTS' FTTH system in Lubbock (channel 32). Local original programming on the station totals 65 hours per week.
