KTKB-LD (channel 26) is a low-power television station licensed to Tamuning, Guam, serving the U.S. territory as an affiliate of The CW Plus. Owned by Chicago-based KM Communications, the station is operated by Marianas Media under a local marketing agreement (LMA). It is carried island-wide on cable channel 4 on MCV Broadband and GTA's GUdTV system.
Despite being a low-power television station, KTKB's signal covers all of Guam. It is also the territory's first fully digital commercial television station.
History
The station went on the air on April 20, 2009, though it received its construction permit on September 3, 2003. Like most of the television stations in Guam, KTKB followed a Tuesday through Monday schedule for its CW prime time lineup because of Guam being a day ahead of the United States. However, it was the first station in Guam to air first-run syndicated fare and classic TV shows, most of them from the Sony Pictures Television library, though programming from Universal Media Studios and Warner Bros. Television was added in September 2009. By April 2010, other stations in Guam, notably KTGM and KEQI-LP, began adding syndicated product.
