SPRTV is a member-supported, non-profit organization that rebroadcasts public and commercial FM radio, and over-the-air antenna TV signals that are naturally blocked by the splendid mountains surrounding Summit County, Colorado.
SPRTV is managed by an all-volunteer working Board.
As a community broadcasting service, we strive to provide diverse and previously unavailable programming that enriches everyone who lives, works and vacations here – with minimal overlap with local FM radio stations and cable/satellite TV providers.
Our stations originate in the Denver area, Eagle and Summit Counties. Signals are captured at our electronics site on Bald Mountain and rebroadcast into Summit County.

Thank you.
In autumn 2021, SPRTV achieved a major milestone: One mile of the new power line now reaches up Bald Mountain. While our capital project continues, so does our need for operating revenue. Please make a donation this holiday season to keep SPRTV’s channels on the air for the benefit of our community. Thank you for your continuing support!

Read a Summit Daily News article about SPRTV’s progress on replacing the its power line and a great Breckenridge Creative Arts Magazine profile of SPRTV. Our electronics site at 12,600 ft. on Bald Mountain provides great signal coverage for much of Summit County. However, due to the high elevation and harsh weather, maintaining and improving our facility is costly. Without the hard work of our volunteers and the financial generosity of our supporting members, half of the FM radio stations and nearly all the free, over-the-air antenna TV channels would disappear from Summit County. We do not receive funding from the stations/channels we rebroadcast. Nor do we receive any annual operating funds from groups like NPR and PBS; or state, county or local town governments. We rely 100% on donations from our listeners and viewers . . . Like you!
On August 28th an important encoder-multiplexer was replaced and CBS, RMPBS, ABC, and NBC were restored to the 8.x signals. Many thanks to Pitkin County Telecom for loaning us the component while we search for long-term replacements for the 8.x and 10.x signals.
On November 3rd a Technalogix encoder-multiplexer was installed and broadcast the 10.x signals. Long term we expect to move the 8.x services to this new device.
You may need to have your TV rescan to ensure that the TV channels are properly calibrated and the on-screen information is updated. Check your ‘settings’ menu for instructions.
On July 30th the antenna and related connections for channels 21.x and 2.1 were restored. On your TV they may appear as the 12.x channels.

In autumn 2021, SPRTV achieved a major milestone: About one mile of the new power line now reaches up Bald Mountain. While our capital project continues, so does our need for operating revenue. Please make a donation this holiday season to keep SPRTV’s channels on the air for the benefit of our community. Thank you for your continuing support!
Construction / installation of the replacement power line has been delayed indefinitely. Please check back for future updates.
