History

The station was originally licensed to Galveston Educational TV, Inc. under the call sign KUYA; it is unknown whether the station ever went on the air under those call letters.
On July 20, 1989, Eldred Thomas moved the KLTJ religious programming inventory and call sign from channel 57 to channel 22 to take advantage of an improved coverage area.
Before moving the call letters to Houston, Thomas owned KLTJ in Dallas from 1983 to 1987; it was a sister station to radio outlet KVTT-FM, which Thomas also owned.
