KVLY-TV channel 11 is the NBC affiliate for Fargo, North Dakota, serving eastern North Dakota and northwestern Minnesota. It broadcasts a high definition digital signal on UHF channel 44 (or virtual channel 11.1 via PSIP) from a transmitter tower near Blanchard. The station can also be seen on cable channel 11 in most areas of the market. There is a high definition signal offered on Midco digital channel 611 and Cable One digital channel 1011.
Owned by Gray Television, the station is sister to low-powered CBS affiliate KXJB-LD and the two outlets share studios on 21st Avenue South in Fargo. In addition to its main studio in Fargo, KVLY operates a news bureau and sales office in the US Bank building in downtown Grand Forks. KVLY is considered a part of the NBC North Dakota state network of NBC affiliates, although it originates separate programming and newscasts from flagship and sister station KFYR-TV in Bismarck.
The station is most notable for using the third tallest above-ground structure in the world for broadcasting its signal, rising 2,063-foot (629 m) high. KVLY is owned by Gray Television. The KVLY tower was at one time the tallest structure in the world and it is currently the tallest structure in The Western Hemisphere. The KRDK-TV tower is located just 6 miles from the KVLY tower.
