KAJL-LD is a low-powered television station licensed to Fayetteville, Arkansas, serving mainly the northern half of the Fort Smith-Fayetteville-Rogers market of western Arkansas. The station is owned and operated by DTV America Corporation, a southern Florida-based group of television stations that is launching stations in 70 markets throughout the mid-2010s. Its transmitter is located on Robinson Mountain in eastern Washington County along Ed Edwards Road.
History
The station's application history dates back to around February 2011 under the call letters K18JL-D. The callsigns were changed to the current KAJL-LD in 2013.[3][4]
DTV America Corporation announced in December 2014 that KAJL will go on the air as a Telemundo affiliate. The station took to the air by early 2014 as an affiliate of Spanish-language television network, Telemundo, broadcasting in 1080i HD. The station is the newest competitor to two other Spanish television stations in the market, Univision affiliates KXUN-LD and KWNL-CD and Telemundo affiliate KEGW-CD.
Doctor TV, a new healthy-lifestyle oriented network was run on channel 16.2 until December 2015, when it was replaced by the Grit TV network. On that same day, KAJL-LD3 began broadcasting Sony Pictures Television's GetTV, and KAJL-LD4 was launched to serve as a Laff network affiliate.
