KET Pics and Info
Kentucky Educational Television, headquartered in Lexington, Ky., signed on the air in September 1968 as Kentucky's statewide public broadcasting network. Today, KET is the largest PBS member network in America. Our 31 transmitters (16 analog, 15 digital) and four translators deliver both the PBS national schedule and our own wide range of local arts, cultural, documentary, and public affairs productions to viewers throughout Kentucky and in parts of seven surrounding states.
KET launched Kentucky's first digital transmitter in 1999 and, since the fall of 2002, has broadcast four digital channels--KET1, KET2, KET3 and KET4--statewide. Recent Nielsen reports indicate that approximately 600,000 Kentuckians, including some 200,000 children, watch KET general-audience programs each week.
Much more information about KET's mission, services and history is available at www.ket.org/about.
