K25IA
Encyclopedia
K25IA-D is a low-power
translator television station in Minneapolis, Minnesota
. It broadcasts locally on digital channel 25 at 15 kilowatts from an antenna located atop the IDS Center
at 80 South 8th Street in downtown Minneapolis
. This station uses MPEG-2
audio rather than the ATSC
standard, AC3 audio. Some set-top boxes only received AC3 audio, so individuals with this type of set-top box received K25IA without sound, although this problem was reportedly fixed in the mid-summer of 2010.
The digital signal, which went on the air in 2010, is broadcast on channel 25. W25IA-D offers all five TBN services, but in different orders than full-powered affiliates (such as KTBN-TV
and WJEB-TV
).
