History

This station initially began in 1980 (FCC file: BRTT-19800530IG) as K65BC in

KUVN-CA in Fort Worth operated on channel 31 until 2001 when that station moved to channel 47 clearing the way for other use of channel 31. On January 6, 2004, the call sign of K65BC changed to K31GL with the change from channel 65 in Mullin to channel 31 in DeSoto, Texas. During the summer of 2006, the station picked up Almavision
.

At one time in the late 1980s, a non-profit organization secured a

construction permit for a full-power station on non-commercial channel 31 in Fort Worth that would have broadcast with the call KETE-TV. However, the organization never built the station and the CP was cancelled by the FCC
.

In late 2006, Almavision programming ceased on the station and it started airing an all-infomercial format, much like KBOP-LD's current format.

When K31GL switched from analog to digital broadcasting in November 2008, the Genesis network moved from KHPK-LP and KNAV-LP to K31GL, and KHPK-LP began broadcasting K31GL's former infomercial format. In December, DT3 began an all-infomercial format.

On March 12, 2009, DT3 began broadcasting

KDTX-DT3
.

On May 19, 2009, DT4 began broadcasting AMGTV. Less than a year later on May 13, 2010, DT4 switched to an affiliate of the

Retro Television Network
.

On January 7, 2011, DT5 was launched airing infomercials.

In June 2013, K31GL-D was slated to be sold to Landover 5 LLC as part of a larger deal involving 51 other low-power television stations;[2] the sale fell through in June 2016.[3] Mako Communications sold its stations, including K31GL-D, to HC2 Holdings in 2017.[4]

In August 2018, the station went silent,

2016-2017 FCC incentive auction, while it constructed its post-repack facility on assigned displacement channel 7.[6]

In February 2020, the station returned to the air with call sign K07AAD-D, broadcasting on assigned displacement channel 7 and moving its community of license to Fort Worth.[7]
