Washington, D.C. (September 8,
2010) --
KTHV-TV, the CBS affiliate in central Arkansas, including Little
Rock, is planning to upgrade to High-Definition newscasts this
fall.
According to Arkansas Business, the station now airs some local
news features and station promos in HD. But it's now installing
the equipment necessary to go all HD in the next several weeks.
"The technology and
infrastructure changes are underway," a station official told
the publication. "We will update viewers as we move toward
completion this fall."
The official would not give a specific date for the first HD
newscast. But he said new equipment might be ready by November
when the fall ratings begin.
