KEVU-CD, virtual and UHF digital channel 23, is a low-power, Class A MyNetworkTV-affiliated television station licensed to Eugene, Oregon, United States. Owned by California Oregon Broadcasting, Inc. of Medford, Oregon, it is a sister station to Fox affiliate KLSR-TV (channel 34). Both stations share studios on Chad Drive in Eugene, while KEVU-CD's transmitter is located on South Ridge.
Due to KEVU's low-power status, the station is simulcast on KLSR's second digital subchannel to expand its broadcasting radius. This signal broadcasts on UHF digital channel 31.4 (or virtual channel 34.2) from the same transmitting tower on South Ridge.
In August 2019, California Oregon Broadcasting, Inc. upgraded KEVU-CD to the 1080i full HD picture format;[1] prior to this upgrade, programming was being presented in 480i 4:3 SD. Concurrent with this upgrade, the full-market simulcast over KLSR-DT2 was upgraded to the 720p HD picture format;[2] prior to that, the full-market simulcast of KEVU-CD over KLSR-DT2 was also being shown in 480i 4:3 SD.
History[]
The station signed on as independent station K25AS channel 25 on April 15, 1985. On October 9, 1986, the station affiliated with Fox. The station reverted to an independent when KEVU (channel 34, now KLSR-TV) signed on in 1991, taking the Fox affiliation from K25AS. On January 16, 1995, K25AS became a UPN affiliate. In 1997, the station's callsign was changed to KEVU-LP when channel 34 concurrently became KLSR. In 2002, the station became an independent for the third time when the UPN affiliation moved to KTVC (channel 36). KEVU-LP later became affiliated with MyNetworkTV when that network launched on September 5, 2006, and later changed its callsign to KEVU-CD in 2011.
