Even though KVTX-LD has a digital signal of its own, the low-power broadcasting radius only covers the immediate Victoria area. Therefore, the station can also be seen through a 16:9 widescreen standard definition simulcast on KVCT's second digital subchannel in order to reach the entire market; this signal can be seen on channel 19.2 from the same Farm to Market Road 236 transmitter site west of Victoria.
