The station went on the air in February 3, 1995 as K09VR (branded as "KVR9") on channel 9. KVR initially broadcast music videos from
MuchMusic and local programs around the area. In January 2010, TSTV began broadcasting digitally on UHF channel 29 under a new call sign, K29HW-D. A campaign was held to raise the $85,000 needed to convert the station to digital. As a low-power station, K09VR was not required to meet the
June 12, 2009, deadline to convert. Its license for analog channel 9 (K09VR) was later cancelled. In June 2011, TSTV increased transmitter power to 3,400 watts, enhancing its coverage across Austin, and to an estimated 75,000 households who watch television via antenna. TSTV moved from UHF channel 29 to UHF channel 32 in July 2022, with a power increase to 7.5
kilowatts, and changed its call sign to K32OJ-D. == Programming==
