Tegna, ownership group of KHOU, had a news report
that the news studio for KHOU was setup at a "PBS station
in Dallas", with satellite uplink to KUSA (Denver).
Master Control is running at KUSA Denver for KHOU
service area, with satellite back to the transmitter
for KHOU.

According to the FCC filing, the transmitter is located SW of Houston
near Fresno, TX
at 29deg 33min 40secN  95deg 30min 4sec W
Google Maps does show a tower there.
