Public television viewers have probably noticed some changes at KLRU, including a brand-new channel called KLRU Q that debuted today. You can read all about the switchover in tomorrow’s issue, but for now, here’s a breakdown of where to find the new channel, along with the pre-existing main KLRU and KLRU Create channels.

Digital broadcast TV:

KLRU 18-1

KLRU Create 18-2

KLRU Q 18-3

Grande Cable:

KLRU 9/309

KLRU Create 283 (Only available to digital cable subscribers)

KLRU Q 284 (Only available to digital cable subscribers)

Time Warner Cable:

KLRU 9/1541

KLRU Create 1542 (Only available to digital cable subscribers)

KLRU Q 20/255 (Only available to digital cable subscribers)

Wondering what the Q stands for? KLRU’s blog cites the kind of Q words one has come to expect from PBS – quality, quest, quirk, quintessential – but the Q word that gives away KLRU Q bleeds Austin: queso.
