Four years later, with an ownership change, the call letters became KXTV (the "X" being the Roman numeral for the VHFchannel it broadcasts on, channel 10).
Since 2002-2003, KXTV has been the local television home of the Sacramento Kings, the city's National Basketball Association franchise, which coincides with their network's coverage of NBA games.
KXTV has a chopper (a Eurocopter AS350 A-Star, with a Flir Systems gyrostabilized camera), and it maybe broadcasts one police chase a year.
If KXTV could expand "News10 at 5:00" to an hour and push back World News Tonight to 6:30, KXTV would be the outright news leader in ratings and everything else.
KXTV could just pawn Hollywood Squares off to some station like KTXL, KMAX, or KCRA, and Gannett would have its own ratings powerhouse in the 19th largest market in the nation.
