It is owned and operated by TBN's Community Educational Television subsidiary, which manages stations in Texas and Florida on channels allocated for non-commercial educational broadcasting, and serves as the subsidiary's flagship station. KETH-TV's studios (and CET's general offices) are located on South Wilcrest Drive in the Alief section of Houston. The station's transmitter is located near Missouri City, in unincorporated northeastern Fort Bend County.

History

The station was founded on October 12, 1983, and first signed on the air on July 16, 1987.

Programming

As with other CET stations, KETH carries almost all of the TBN network schedule (though with program promos and public service announcements replacing commercial advertising aired on its national feed and commercially-licensed stations), as well as some locally produced programs: a local version of Praise the Lord, Up with the Son and Joy in Our Town. In addition to programming from TBN, the station airs educational programming to prepare local students for the GED test to fulfill the requirements under their license service.
