KMIZ-TV

All four stations are available with an antenna and on all cable providers in Mid-Missouri. ABC 17, Fox 22 and MyZouTV are also available on Dish Network and DirecTV.

Digital television
The station's digital signal is multiplexed. Before KQFX Fox 22 was aired from its own transmitter in Mid-Missouri, it was found on digital channel 17-2 via PSIP at a standard definition of 480i; Stormtrack 24/7 was found on 17-4 via PSIP.

History
KMIZ began its broadcasting operation on December 5, 1971 as KCBJ-TV. It took ABC programming from NBC affiliate KOMU-TV and CBS affiliate KRCG. In 1982, KCBJ and KOMU swapped affiliations. ABC had become the nation's highest-rated network and had been looking to get its programming on higher-rated stations. It found the chance to align with long-dominant KOMU too much to resist. By 1985, however, NBC regained the ratings lead, and the two stations returned to their original networks on New Year's Day 1986. Along with the switch, channel 17 changed its call letters to the current KMIZ. In the late 1990s, Fox 11 (K02NQ in Columbia and K11TB in Jefferson City) was launched. It also operated cable-only WB 100+ affiliate "KJWB" (known on-air as "WB 5" from its cable channel location) from its launch in 1998 until 2002. In that year, KMIZ's parent company Benedek Broadcasting went bankrupt and was sold to Gray Television Group. KJWB was moved to KOMU by The WB, and KMIZ was divested to Chelsey Broadcasting, a division of Gray Television Group.

That company in turn sold the station to JW Broadcasting in May 2003. In late-2003, JW Broadcasting relaunched Fox on a new low-power analog signal (K38II) on channel 38 in Columbia and Jefferson City. The company also launched KZOU, a cable-only UPN affiliate in Mid-Missouri. Additionally, the station launched the country's first all local weather channel, known as Show-Me Weather. In 2006, UPN was merged with the WB network and KZOU was awarded the MyNetworkTV affiliation and became known as MyZou 32 (now MyZouTV). In 2007, Show-Me Weather was re-branded as ABC 17 Stormtrack 24/7, taking on an increased focus on local weather.

On June 12, 2009, analog transmissions ceased allover the United States and KMIZ became a strictly digital broadcaster. ABC 17 can be found on digital 17-1, ABC 17 Stormtrack 24/7 on digital 17-2 and MyZouTV on digital 17-3. JW Broadcasting LLC was also awarded a new digital transmission license for its FOX affiliate and FOX 22 on digital channel 22 was born.
