Iowa PBS's translator, which receives its signal from KIIN Channel 12, serving the Ottumwa viewing area is temporarily out of service today  due to tower work and inspections. The work began around 9 a.m. and is expected to last around 90 minutes. The Iowa PBS crew will work diligently to limit the outage as much as possible..

In addition to its statewide broadcast, Iowa PBS .1 is available to livestream on iowapbs.org/watch, pbs.org/livestream, the PBS App, Local Now, YouTube TV and Hulu + Live TV. Iowa PBS programs, behind-the-scenes extras and more can be enjoyed on iowapbs.org, Facebook and YouTube. Viewers can also stream their favorite shows on demand using the PBS App, available on iOS, Android and many streaming devices.
