KMYA-DT, virtual and UHF digital channel 49, is a MeTV-affiliated television station serving Little Rock, Arkansas, United States that is licensed to Camden. The station is owned by 1 Squared Media, LLC. KMYA maintains studio facilities located on Shackelford Drive in the Beverly Hills section of Little Rock, and its transmitter is located along AR 335 northwest of El Dorado. KMYA is also repeated on digital subchannels of three low-power Univision affiliates in Arkansas owned by Pinnacle Media: KLRA-CD (channel 20) in Little Rock proper, KXUN-LD (channel 43) in Fort Smith, and KWNL-CD (channel 31) in Winslow/Fayetteville.
Although KMYA brands itself as and is legally a part of the Little Rock market, KMYA's transmitter is located near El Dorado, resulting in it serving most of the El Dorado/Monroe, Louisiana market and not reaching Little Rock proper. Instead, KMYA must rely on satellite and cable television or its simulcast via KLRA-CD to reach the Little Rock metro.
The station's repeater, KLRA-CD, was founded on May 5, 1995 as K22FA; it later changed its callsign to KKYK-LP in 1996. The low-power station was originally an affiliate of Network One, but later became an affiliate of The WB. The full-power station now known as KMYA first signed on the air in Camden on June 7, 1999, as KKYK-TV, with KKYK-LP becoming its repeater. The station was originally owned by Equity Media Holdings, which was headquartered in Little Rock and housed the master control hub for all of the company's television stations.
