KgtvKGTV (Channel 10) is the San Diego, California-based affiliate of the American Broadcasting Companies (ABC). This station went on the air on September 13, 1953 as KFSD-TV (First in San Diego), and was affiliated at the time with NBC television. In 1961, KFSD-TV, along with then-sister radio station KFSD-AM 600, changed their call letters to KOGO-TV and AM. The broadcasting division of the Time-Life magazine company purchased the stations, which also included a FM station, in 1962 from a locally-based firm, Fox, Wells & Rogers. In 1972, the McGraw-Hill publishing company purchased Channel 10 (along with Indianapolis' WFBM-TV Channel 6--now WRTV) and changed its call letters to the present KGTV. The radio stations were sold seperately to other interests. KGTV joined the ABC television network in 1977, after ABC chose to disaffiliate itself from UHF station KCST Channel 39 (now KNSD). Channel 10 has remained with ABC since then. KGTV's website: www.10news.com
