1962 listing reflecting original operation.

1976 listing.  By this time, ch 62 had increased power significantly & added color operation.  They were also by this time licensed & operating KTOY-FM 91.7

1988 listing.  By this time KTPS-TV was operating on (analog) ch 28 & the FM station now had the calls KTPS-FM.

1993 listing.  By now ch 28 had the calls KBTC-TV & an ownership change to Bates Technical College.  The co-owned FM at 91.7 retained the KTPS-FM calls during this time period.   These listings are from “Television Factbook” in my collection & is intended as an appendix to Tom Layson’s excellent tour & history of KTPS/KBTC-TV.
