History

KLTV began as a class at Lower Columbia College in 1973. After the college decided to discontinue the class, a group of citizens joined together to form a nonprofit organization that was named Lower Columbia Telecommunications Association. This would later become Kelso Longview Television Inc.

Devotion to the concept of Public-access television as a means of communication throughout the county held the group together. The station operated without a budget until 1980 when the city of Longview agreed to give a portion of the Cable television franchise fee to operate the Public-access television channel.

KLTV chose a membership-based structure to increase user accountability, demonstrate commitment to the principles of Public-access television, and help defray operating expenses. Membership expenses are minimal and it is KLTV's goal to remain accessible to any citizen of Cowlitz County.
