KTXL-TV, Sacramento, has come a long way since it first hit the airwaves on Oct. 26, 1968. Back then, the station was distrib ... uting UHF antennas to help educate viewers that they could receive the station’s signal, and $86 bought a prime-time spot. Since then, the station has accomplished several industry firsts, including being one of the first independent UHF stations in the country to launch a seven-day newscast and have its own satellite downlink. It also was the first station in its market to have a satellite truck and to computerize its newsroom. We produce more local news than any other station in the Sacramento-Stockton-Modesto tv news market. From Paul Robins and Bethany Crouch in the early morning, to Stefanie Cruz, Ty Steele and Jim Crandell at 10pm, FOX40 has the local stories, sports coverage, investigations, and news that matters.
