 At that time, channel 17 became a Class A station and changed its call letters to KETM-CA, subsequently becoming a repeater of channel 43.The Junction City station that originally held the KTMJ calls also had its call letters changed to KTLJ-CA.With the reassignment of the Topeka station as the originating station for KTMJ, Montgomery Communications relocated the station's operations from Junction City to facilities on Southgate Drive in southwest Topeka; master control operations remained in Junction City, before moving to the Topeka facility in May 2004.
