UPGRADING OUR REACH At OETA, we’re thrilled to announce the successful replacement of all 14 low-power transmitters across Oklahoma! From Boise City to Idabel, these upgrades ensure better signal quality and reliability for our viewers statewide.

This project was made possible by $3 million in one-time funding for fiscal year 2025. Thanks to strategic vendor negotiations and bulk pricing, we’re replacing not only all 14 low-power transmitters but also all four highpower ones. The final two—serving Oklahoma City and Cheyenne—will be completed by the end of summer.

With a lifespan of 20-25 years, these new transmitters constitute a significant investment in the future of public television in Oklahoma. Whether you’re tuning in for news, educational programs, or entertainment, these upgrades mean a stronger, clearer signal for years to come.

Thank you for your support as we continue to bring Oklahomans the best in public broadcasting!

—VP of Engineering, OETA Lawson Adams

Ready to Learn Programs – Our Ready to Learn initiative leverages PBS KIDS content to engage families, educators, and communities in nurturing children’s development from an early age. By integrating television, online resources, and app-based technology with media literacy principles, we aim to prepare children for academic success and lifelong learning.
