KNIC-TV is a full-service television station in Blanco, Texas (located within the Austin market), broadcasting locally in analog on UHF channel 17 as the Telefutura station for San Antonio. Founded July 13, 2005, the station is owned by Univision Television Group Inc. and is repeated on KFTO-CA, UHF channel 67. KNIC-TV replaced KNIC-CA, which formerly broadcast on channel 17 as the Telefutura station.

[edit] Digital television

Because it was granted an original construction permit after the FCC finalized the DTV allotment plan on April 21, 1997 [1], the station did not receive a companion channel for a digital television station. Instead, on or before February 17, 2009, which is the end of the digital TV conversion period for full-service stations, KNIC-TV will be required to turn off its analog signal and turn on its digital signal (called a "flash-cut").
