KDTN (channel 2) is a religious television station licensed to Denton, Texas, United States, serving the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex as the flagship outlet of the Daystar Television Network. The station's studios are co-located with Daystar headquarters off SH 121 in Bedford, and its transmitter is located on Tar Road in Cedar Hill, just south of the DallasEllis county line. It is operated separately from sister station KPTD-LP (channel 51) in Paris, Texas, which shares spectrum with full-power KDTN despite being licensed as a low-power station.
