KKTV, virtual channel 11 (UHF digital channel 49), is a CBS-affiliated television station licensed to Colorado Springs, Colorado, United States. It serves the Colorado Springs/Pueblo market and is owned by Gray Television. Its transmitter is located on Cheyenne Mountain in Colorado Springs, with studios located on East Colorado Avenue in downtown Colorado Springs. KKTV is carried on Comcast cable channel 10 in Colorado Springs and channel 11 in Pueblo.
In the northern part of New Mexico, KKTV's broadcast area overlaps with that of KRQE's, especially in the state capital, Santa Fe.
KKTV signed on the air on December 7, 1952. It is the third-oldest station in Colorado— behind Denver's KWGN-TV and KUSA-TV—and the oldest outside Denver. The station's first studio located on Mill Street was too small from the beginning. It originally carried programming from CBS, NBC, ABC, and DuMont. In 1953, KRDO-TV signed on and took the NBC affiliation. DuMont folded in 1956, leaving KKTV as a primary CBS affiliate and secondary ABC affiliate. That same year, the station moved its operations to a new building located on South Tejon Street in Colorado Springs.
