History

During the week of August 11, 2006, KHCV started carrying "Azteca America" on their analog channel 45 as well as their digital channel 44-2.

On December 20, 2006, Navarre's FUNimation Entertainment announced that the FUNimation channel would be broadcast on KHCV 44-3. [http://www.animatedbliss.com/NEWS/press-release.asp?TID=3831&title=FUNimation+Channel+in+Seattle FUNimation Channel in Seattle] ]

On March 1, 2007, KHCV started broadcasting content from GFN Entertainment Network [http://www.gameznflix.com/default.aspx?content=about/release&id=80 GNF Entertainment Signs Affiliate Agreement with Full Power Station KHCV for Digital Channel Carriage in Seattle, Washington] ] on their digital subchannels 44-3 and 44-4. 44-3 carried GNF "Game & Music" and 44-4 carried GNF "Movie".

Previously, the analog broadcast (UHF 45) was exclusively Azteca América, while the Comcast broadcast of this channel (Channel 15) is Jewelry TV. As of September 10, 2007, it appears that the analog UHF channel 45 carries the Jewelry TV content which is the same as the digital UHF channel 44-1 and Comcast channel 15.

On October 15, 2007, programming from AAT Television started broadcasting on digital channel 44-3.

On April 19, 2008, it appears that the America One content on channel 44-4 has been replaced by "The Sportsman Channel and has since been removed.
