The Nebraska Educational Television Commission sent an 822000 plan to the Legislature to improve ETV reception in Omaha and other weak areas. It calls for a 1 kilowatt transmitter at Channel 26 on the University of Nebraska at Omaha campus to amplify power about thirtyfold, with additional signals strengthened in Falls City Pawnee City Beatrice and several other towns. If federal funds are approved the state would pay about one fourth of total cost. The plan stems from Washington consultants and a 1903 legislative study. KYNE-TV would carry night and weekend programs already aired by other ETC stations.
