The station was founded on October 12, 1983, and first signed on the air on July 16, 1987.
Digital television
This station's digital signal, like most other full-service TBN owned-and-operated stations, carries five different TBN-run networks.

TBN-owned full-power stations permanently ceased analog transmissions on April 16, 2009.
KETH-TV discontinued regular programming on its analog signal, over UHF channel 14, on that date.[1] The station's digital signal remained on its pre-transition UHF channel 24, using PSIP to display KETH-TV's virtual channel as 14 on digital television receivers.
Programming
As with other Community Educational Television stations, KETH carries almost all of the TBN network schedule; in addition, the station carries some locally produced programs: We Speak Inglés (a local version of Praise the Lord), Up with the Son and Joy in our Town.
