I saw today in the online tv listings that there is a low-power tv station on UHF channel K68FY, licensed to Price Broadcasting in 2000 (according to FCC website). I don't think it is carried on Comcast. Correct? Anyway, it seems to be run a lot of old movies and tv shows (real old) based on what is shown on the Deseret News' online tv listings. So I might want to watch it. But I don't want to go to the trouble of getting an indoor UHF antenna and a signal splitter for the tv, and then finding out that the signal is too weak in my neck of the woods. I do not want to bother with an outdoor antenna. So where on the FCC website can I find maps showing the signal contour? All I could find was engineering data with a table on numbers that means nothing to me. I live in the south-west part of the Salt Lake Valley.

Well, actually channel 68 has been simulcasting Price's KUTH sister... KUTP? Channel 3 - for a while now.
The programming that was previously on that channel was from "3ABN" I believe, Three Angels Broadcasting... which is on cable I think.
Channel 69 (translator) simulcasts KTMW (?) that is on channel 20.
Unfortunately, Zap2It (TV listings site) isn't very good about getting this stuff up to date.

3ABN is supposedly seen on a translator in Provo on channel 34. None of the cable systems have picked it up.
I've also seen a recent FCC order that indicates there will be another translator or LPTV also on 68 in Ogden, but I don't know what it will run. It was listed in an order denying complaints by Motorola about channel 60-69 LPTVs/translators.
The FCC approved the Ogden channel 68 facility.
