KFOR-TV, virtual channel 4 (UHF digital channel 27), is an NBC-affiliated television station licensed to Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, United States. The station is owned by the Tribune Broadcasting subsidiary of Tribune Media, as part of a duopoly with independent station KAUT-TV (channel 43). The two stations share studio and transmitter facilities located on Britton Road (U.S. 77) in the McCourry Heights section of northeast Oklahoma City.
On cable, the station is available on channel 4 on Cox Communications' Oklahoma City metropolitan area system—with its high definition feed on digital channel 704—and on most other cable systems (as well as on AT&T U-verse, and satellite providers DirecTV and Dish Network) in the market.
The station first signed on the air on June 6, 1949 as WKY-TV; it was the first television station to sign on in Oklahoma, debuting five months before KOTV in Tulsa. Channel 4 was founded by the Oklahoma Publishing Company (owned by the family of founder Edward K. Gaylord), publishers of the morning Daily Oklahoman and evening Oklahoma Times newspapers, and owners of radio station WKY (930 AM) – from which the television station inherited its original call letters. The station has been a primary NBC affiliate since it signed on (owing to WKY radio's longtime affiliation with the NBC Red Network), although it originally held secondary affiliations with CBS, ABC and the DuMont Television Network. The station's first studio facilities were housed in the Municipal Auditorium in downtown Oklahoma City, with a secondary studio that was used for the production of local programs based at the Little Theatre.
