KUNW-CD


KUNW-CD, virtual channel 2, is a low-powered, Class A Univision-affiliated television station licensed to Yakima, Washington, United States. Owned by the Sinclair Broadcast Group, it is sister to CBS affiliate KIMA-TV. The two stations share studios on Terrace Heights Boulevard in Yakima; KUNW-CD's transmitter is located on Ahtanum Ridge.

Sale to Sinclair Broadcast Group

On April 11, 2013, Fisher Communications announced that it would sell its properties, including KUNW and KIMA, to the Sinclair Broadcast Group. The deal was completed on August 8, 2013.

KUNW's programming is also seen on two additional stations, both serving the Tri-Cities area of Richland, Pasco, and Kennewick:
