    The Federal Communications Commission has proposed a change for the KHSV television station in Las Vegas, which would shift its broadcast from channel 2 to channel 23. This change aims to address reception issues caused by interference on the current low-VHF channel 2, particularly from lighting and the mountainous terrain around Las Vegas.

Public comments on this substitution are invited by April 24, 2025.
