KBVO

KBVO is an ABC affiliate serving Austin, Texas, and the Austin area. Broadcasting on channel 24, KBVO is owned and operated by Lady Luck Communications. KBVO was launched in 1983 as an independent station by Steve Beard. KBVO was an independent for 12 years before UPN came calling and KBVO became an affiliate of UPN. In 2002, Lady Luck Communications purchased the station, but kept the UPN affiliation. Then in 2011, when KAUS became a Rainbow Dash Network (RDN) affiliate, KBVO became the new ABC affiliate. KBVO moved the UPN affiliation to their subchannel. In addition to running the ABC schedule, KBVO also airs syndicated programming, including Live with Kelly & Michael, Family Feud, and The Pyramid. KBVO also operates three subchannels: 24.2 (for UPN), 24.3 (for Disney Sports Network), and 24.3 (for Vault Disney).
