Profile CDBS |
KMYA-DT, virtual channel 24 (UHF digital channel 49), is a Me-TV-affiliated television station serving Little Rock, Arkansas, United States that is licensed to Camden. The station is owned by 1 Squared Media, LLC. Prior KMYA maintains studio facilities located on Shackelford Drive in the Beverly Hills section of Little Rock, and its transmitter is located on Shinall Mountain, near the Chenal Valley neighborhood of Little Rock. The station's programming is simulcast on translator station KLRA-CD, virtual and UHF digital channel 20, in Little Rock and relayed on KWNL-CD (digital subchannel 31.2) in Winslow.
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.
In 2001, the station changed its call letters to KYPX, and swapped affiliations with then sister-station KWBF (channel 42, now KARZ-TV), becoming an affiliate of Pax TV (now Ion Television). The station, and its repeater (which retained the KKYK-LP calls), remained affiliates of Pax TV until June 30, 2005, when it became i: Independent Television. KYPX disaffiliated from the newly rebranded network, and instead became the flagship station of the Retro Television Network.
