KPBI-CA is a Class A low-power MyNetworkTV affiliate in Fort Smith, Arkansas, broadcasting on channel 46. The station is owned by Equity Broadcasting and like many of Equity stations, KPBI-CA is controlled remotely via satellite from Equity's headquarters in Little Rock, Arkansas, and is relayed via the satellite Galaxy 10R (Ku-band transponder 21). The station's programming is also available on channel 34 from Eureka Springs, which shares the KPBI call sign
Until August 28, 2006, KPBI-CA was the FOX affiliate for this market, and was referred to on the air as FOX Arkansas.
KPBI-CA lost the FOX affiliation to KFTA-TV on August 28, even though Equity Broadcasting challenged the sale of KFTA-TV with the FCC. [1] KPBI-CA has joined FOX's new sister network, MyNetworkTV. There is no known MNTV logo or website for KPBI-CA. Sister station KFDF-CA, the former UPN affiliate and the original MNTV affiliate, joined the Retro Television Network. [2] [3] [4] [5]
