KTRV-TV is the MyNetworkTV affiliate for Idaho's Treasure Valley licensed to Nampa. It broadcasts a high definition digital signal on VHF channel 13 (or virtual channel 12.1 via PSIP) from a transmitter at the Bogus Basin ski area summit in unincorporated Boise County. Owned by Block Communications, KTRV has studios in Nampa at the corner of 6th Street North and Northside/Nampa Boulevard. Programming on the station includes ''Friends'', ''How I Met Your Mother'', and ''Family Guy'' along with local productions of "Inside the Broncos / Football in the West", "The Golf Skills Challenge", and "Landscape and Garden Secrets Tips from the Pro's among others. ==History== The station signed-on October 18, 1981, airing an analog signal on VHF channel 12. It was the first independent station in Idaho, and featured programming offerings consisting primarily of syndicated talk and children shows in the day and movies in the evenings. It was originally owned by Peyton Broadcasting. Peyton sold the station to current owner Block Communications in 1985. The station became a Fox affiliate when the network launched in 1986. It added the -TV suffix to its calls on July 10, 2006. On February 6, 2009, KTRV added MyNetworkTV and This TV to a new second digital subchannel. Until this point, there were no affiliates of either network in Boise. KTRV-DT2 was not added to Cable One systems until almost a year later on January 11, 2010. On September 1, 2011, KTRV's affiliation agreement with Fox expired after which the network moved to CW outlet KNIN-TV (owned by the Journal Broadcast Group as part of a duopoly with ABC affiliate KIVI-TV). On September 12 of the same year, The CW Plus (seen on KNIN-DT2 and Cable One systems) moved to low-powered Retro Television Network (RTV) affiliate KYUU-LP that can also seen on a second digital subchannel of CBS affiliate KBOI-TV (both are owned by Fisher Communications in another duopoly). As a result of these changes, KTRV reverted to independent status. With the switch, Boise became one of the only few television markets in the United States with only four out of the six broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, NBC, and Fox) having primary affiliations in a market containing five full-power commercial stations and the remaining two (The CW and the MyNetworkTV program service) as digital multicast channels. It weeknight prime time programming lineup as an Independent began on September 19 with a double run of ''30 Rock'' at 7 and ''Law & Order: Criminal Intent'' at 8. KTRV will maintain a schedule similar to other stations not affiliated with a big three network or Fox. In an attempt to keep programming options fresh, it may rotate its lineup every five or six months as do networks. In addition, KTRV will become heavily involved in the airing live local sports to cover the Treasure Valley's three minor league franchises. KTRV-DT2's MyNetworkTV affiliation initially remained on 12.2, which also added Me-TV programming. By October 2011, This TV moved to a new third digital subchannel of KTRV and presumably new channel location on Cable One systems. The last Fox program to air on this station was ''Buried Treasure''.〔http://voices.idahostatesman.com/2011/05/11/mdeeds/channel_9_become_new_fox_affiliate_treasure_valley〕〔http://www.ktvb.com/home/Big-shakeup-in-Boise-TV-market-Fox-switching-channel-121669319.html〕〔http://www.tvnewscheck.com/article/2011/05/11/51171/fox-pulls-affiliations-in-evansville-boise〕〔http://www.broadcastingcable.com/article/468137-Fox_Inks_New_Affiliation_Agreements_Scraps_Others.php〕〔http://www.broadcastingcable.com/article/469710-EXCLUSIVE_Fox_Affiliate_KTRV_Boise_Going_Independent.php〕 KTRV moved MyNetworkTV to its primary channel on January 23, 2012, leaving 12.2 as a full Me-TV affiliate.〔 This left Boise as one of the only markets where five of the six largest networks are carried as primary affiliations plus a sixth (The CW) on a digital subchannel in a market with five commercially-licensed full-service television stations—a situation similar to what had existed in the Boise market prior to Fox switching its affiliation from KTRV to KNIN less than five months earlier. On September 6, 2014, KTRV-TV Discontinued the This TV affiliation on 12.3 and replaced it with Movies! becoming the first TV station in the area to broadcast that network. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「KTRV-TV」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
