KRDO-TV is an ABC-affiliated television station licensed to Colorado Springs, Colorado, United States and also serving Pueblo. The station broadcasts a high definition digital signal on UHF channel 24 (remapped to former analog channel 13 via PSIP). The station is owned by Pikes Peak Television, a subsidiary of the News-Press & Gazette Company (NPG) of St. Joseph, Missouri, and is sister station to KRDO (AM) and KRDO-FM.
KRDO-TV is carried on channel 12 on Comcast cable in Colorado Springs; channel 13 is instead occupied by Telemundo affiliate KTLO, which is on virtual channel 13.2 over the air.
KRDO-TV first went on the air on September 21, 1953 as an NBC affiliate. At that time, KKTV (channel 11) was a primary CBS affiliate with a secondary affiliation with ABC, and KCSJ-TV (channel 5, now KOAA-TV) was the NBC affiliate for nearby Pueblo. As such, during much of the 1950s, Southern Colorado was served by two full-time NBC affiliates and a CBS affiliate that also carried ABC programming.
