In fact, KTCX doesn't air its first broadcast in 2000, but in 1976 as KBSA-TV, owned by Kaiser Broadcasting (90%) in association with two of the most experienced newspapers in the region, the Big Bend Sentinel (5%) and the Alpine Avalanche (5%). In 1977, after one year of Kaiser/Sentinel/Avalanche ownership, the station was sold to Field Communications, which, in turn, sold the station to Sunbeam Television of Miami in 1982. In 1986, Sunbeam sold channel 63 to TVX Broadcast Group, resulting in a change in call letters to KGBN. In 1989, KGBN became a Paramount network affiliate all the way until 1995 when it returned the station to Sunbeam. In 2003, Sunbeam sold KGBN to the London Broadcasting Company owners of KUSI-TV in San Diego, California. In 2008, channel 63 changes its call letters to the current KTCX. In 2012, London announced that it will sell almost all of its Texas stations (keeping its stations in Dallas/Fort Worth (KTXD) and Tyler (KCEB) for its capital intake) to Gannett. KTCX was instead returned to Sunbeam for three more weeks until it was sold to your company, Independence Broadcasting.
