Description
You and three of your closest friends can have a “Meet & Greet” with the anchors behind the scenes at KTHV Channel 11 in Little Rock, AR. Includes station tour and opportunity to watch the 5:00pm or 6:00pm Newscast in studio in addition to the Meet & Greet with the anchors.
The station we now know as Today's THV actually began as a radio station in Hot Springs. In the 1920s, the Arlington Hotel Company converted its top floor into a radio station called KTHS, which stood for "Come to Hot Springs". In the early 1940s, the radio station was purchased by the Hot Springs Chamber of Commerce and relocated from the Arlington Hotel to downtown Hot Springs. Other investors later purchased KTHS, moving it to the upper floors of a department store in downtown Little Rock. In the early 1950s, a television studio was built and was called KTHV. In 1954 a new building was constructed and the radio and television stations were moved to 720 Izard Street, KTHV's present location. This was the first building in the state to be constructed for both radio and television with KTHV-TV on the first floor and KTHS radio was on the second floor.
KTHV, Channel 11 has experienced many changes and names throughout the years: Channel 11 with George Moore, Dateline News, Newswatch 11, 11 Action News, and now Today's THV. Almost 50 years after signing on, Today's THV, Channel 11, is fully equipped with the latest state-of-the-art equipment, such as LiveView Radar, a digital control room, CCD studio cameras, wireless communication, computer graphics, and non-linear digital editing. Through the years you've depended on Today's THV, and they will always be the station where you will see and feel the difference.
