KMPH-TV, virtual channel 26 (UHF digital channel 28), is a Fox-affiliated television station serving Fresno, California, United States that is licensed to Visalia. The station is owned by the Sinclair Broadcast Group, as part of a duopoly with CW affiliate KFRE-TV (channel 59). The two stations share studio facilities located on East McKinley Avenue in eastern Fresno (one mile southwest of Fresno Yosemite International Airport); KMPH maintains transmitter facilities located on Big Baldy Mountain in northwestern Tulare County.
KMPH-TV's focus is on the San Joaquin Valley and Central California. KMPH-TV's signal is receivable as far way as the Bakersfield area; however, local Fox affiliate and sister station KBFX-CD (itself once a KMPH repeater) is the only Fox station carried by cable providers in the Bakersfield market. KMPH's airwaves extend northward to Mariposa and Merced, and the southern Sierra Nevada, and sometimes can be received in Monterey County for those who live just north of King City. KMPH has been received over-air sometimes in eastern Kern County (Ridgecrest) and San Luis Obispo.
