WDAF-TV, virtual channel 4 (UHF digital channel 34), is a Fox-affiliated television station serving Kansas City, Missouri and Kansas City, Kansas, United States. The station is owned by the Tribune Broadcasting subsidiary of Tribune Media. WDAF-TV maintains studio and transmitter facilities located on Summit Street in the Signal Hill section of Kansas City, Missouri. On cable, WDAF-TV is available on Charter Communications and SureWest channel 6, and AT&T U-verse channel 4.
WDAF-TV also serves as an alternate Fox affiliate for the Saint Joseph market (which borders the Kansas City Designated Market Area to the north), as the station's transmitter produces a city-grade signal that reaches Saint Joseph proper and rural areas in the market's central and southern counties. WDAF previously served as the default NBC station for Saint Joseph until it disaffiliated from the network in September 1994, and as the market's de facto Fox affiliate from that point on until KNPN-LD (channel 26) signed on as an in-market affiliate on June 2, 2012. After its sign-on, KNPN displaced WDAF as the market's Fox station on Suddenlink Communications and smaller cable providers, DirecTV and Dish Network (in contrast, ABC and NBC's respective affiliates in the two markets, KQTV (channel 2) and KNPG-LD (channel 21) in Saint Joseph, and KMBC-TV (channel 9) and KSHB-TV (channel 41) in Kansas City, are both carried on Saint Joseph-area television providers).
