  • KIMO, the flagship station, signed on the air on October 31, 1967, and its call letters were originally KHAR-TV. It was the third television station in Anchorage, after KTVA and KTUU. Its transmitter is located in Knik, Alaska. At first the station was an independent, but obtained an affiliation with NBC in 1970. It switched to ABC in 1971, the same year the KIMO call letters were adopted. In 1972, KIMO opened its own taping facility in Seattle so it could tape ABC shows directly off the network feed without having to use Hawaii as a middleman. The station brought Mister Rogers' Neighborhood and some other PBS programs to Anchorage in the early '70s. The station once had the top local newscasts in Anchorage from 1977 until 1986, when they were surpassed by KTUU. "Alaska's Superstation" was created in 1995. Smith Media sold KIMO and the remainder of the "ABC Alaska's Superstation" system to Vision Alaska LLC in 2010.
