KISA-LD
KISA-LD was a low-power television station in San Antonio, Texas, formerly broadcasting in analog on UHF channel 40 as an affiliate of LAT TV. The station is owned by Mako Communications of Corpus Christi, Texas and was available on Grande Communications cable television, but not on Time Warner Cable.
History
On January 22, 1992, the FCC granted a construction permit to San Antonio College to build a new station to broadcast on UHF channel 48, and assigned it the call sign K48DS. Signing on in January 1994, the station broadcast educational programming. The FCC allocated channel 48 for KSAT-TV's digital operations in April 1997, and San Antonio College tried to move the station to channel 46, but were denied permission to do so. By April 2002, KSAT-DT signed on, and K48DS was forced to shut down. Unable to operate the station on its licensed frequency, and in need of funds for construction, the college sold the station to Mako Communications on August 17, 2004. The new owners relocated the station to channel 40 in March 2005 under the call sign K40IH, then changed the call sign to KISA-LP seven months later.
Kisač
Kisač (Serbian Cyrillic: Кисач, Slovak: Kysáč) is one of the suburban settlements of the City of Novi Sad in the South Bačka District of Serbia. It is situated in the Autonomous Province of Vojvodina. The settlement has a Slovak ethnic majority.
Name
In Serbian the village is known as Kisač (Кисач); in Slovak as Kysáč; in Croatian as Kisač; in Czech as Kysáč; and in Hungarian as Kiszács.
History
The village was firstly mentioned in 1457. In this time it was under administration of the medieval Kingdom of Hungary and was part of the Bács (Bač) county. In the 16th-17th century, it was under administration of the Ottoman Empire and was part of the Sanjak of Segedin, firstly within the Budin Eyalet and later within the Egir Eyalet. During this time it was populated by ethnic Serbs.
In the end of the 17th century, the region of Bačka was captured by the Habsburg Monarchy and in the beginning of the 18th century population of Kisač numbered 110 Serb houses. The Serbs, however, emigrated to Syrmia and the village became abandoned. It was later rebuilt and populated by the Slovak settlers from the Pest County and Central Slovakia. First settlers arrived in 1773, while most of them arrived between 1776 and 1786. In 1798, population of Kisač numbered 337 Slovak families.

Magyar-Serb conflict
According to the dubiousChronicle of the Priest of Duklja, a Magyar leader named Kisa (Serbian: Kiš) led an invasion into Bosnia, where he was decisively defeated by Časlav, the Prince of Serbia (r. 927–960), somewhere on the Drina. Kisa's widow requested from the Magyar chief to give her another army to avenge his death. With an "unknown number" of troops, the widow went for Časlav, encountering him somewhere in Syrmia. In the night, the Magyars attacked the Serbs, captured Časlav and all of his male relatives. On the command of the widow, all of them were bound by their hands and feet and thrown into the Sava river. Vladimir Ćorović dates this event to c. 960.

Srbe i Hrvate od početka X veka često i surovo napadaju Mađari, bilo da na njih udaraju neposredno, bilo da preko njihova područja prodiru u tuđe oblasti. Poslednje godine vlade cara Konstantina, 959., o Vaskrsu, oni prodiru duboko u Vizantiju, do blizu same prestonice. U tim napadajima nije, verovatno, bila pošteđena ni Srbija. U Dukljanskoj Hronici ima poduža priča o tom, kako je Časlav došao u sukob s Mađarima i poginuo od njih. Neki vođa mađarski, Kiš, upao je s vojskom u Bosnu i plenio je. Časlav požuri sa svojim četama proti njega. Stiže ga negde kod Drine i potpuno ga potuče; sam Kiš pogibe u toj borbi. Njegova udovica pođe poglavici mađarskom s molbom, da joj da novu vojsku, da bi osvetila muža. Sa "nebrojenom vojskom", priča hronika, pošla je ona protiv Časlava. Zatekla ga je negde u Sremu. Po noći, iznenada, napali su Mađari na Srbe, potukli ih i uhvatili i samog Časlava i svu njegovu mušku rodbinu. Po naredbi Kišove udovice, vezali su im noge i ruke i pobacali ih sve u Savu. To je bilo negde oko 960. god.
