History

KLST was the first television station in San Angelo, signing on the air on June 26, 1953 as KTXL-TV; the call letters are now at the FOX affiliate in Sacramento, California as of 1968. In 1957, the station changed its call sign to KCTV, which is now the call letters of the CBS network affiliate in Kansas City, Missouri since 1983 at the time when the station became KLST. KLST was purchased by Nexstar Broadcasting in 2004 from the Jewell Television Corporation.

Coverage area

KLST serves as the CBS affiliate for 11 counties in West Central Texas that form the San Angelo television market as defined by Nielsen (Tom Green, Sterling, Coke, Irion, Concho, McCulloch, Schleicher, Menard, Crockett, Sutton & Kimble).

KLST also provides news and weather coverage to four other counties that assigned to other nearby television markets (Runnels & Coleman in the Abilene-Sweetwater DMA, Reagan in the Midland-Odessa DMA, & Mason in the Austin DMA). Runnels County is the adjacent county to San Angelo but the majority of the residents in the county watch local television stations that broadcast out of Abilene. This is why the county is assigned to the Abilene-Sweetwater television market by Nielsen.
