Station History
KNGN-TV signed on the air by Greater Omak Broadcasters, Inc. on February 15th, 1971 as an ABC affiliate, honoring the 60th anniversary of the city's incorporation. When it signed on, it was the first television station on the Greater Omak area, including neighboring towns and cities such as Okanogan and Riverside. KNGN switched its affiliation to NBC in 1981, but still retains ABC on a secondary basis, and has remained an NBC affiliate ever since. In 1983, the original Nationwide Communications, Inc, of Columbus, Ohio bought KNGN-TV's operating facilities from GOB. North Cascades Broadcasting, Inc. (owner of several radio stations) acquired KNGN-TV in August 1998, as part of Nationwide's exit from the television business. On September 7, 2016, the station was sold by both GOB and NCB to the current Nationwide Communications.

Lyrics

 * You and Me and 10TV :Where the great times begin
 * Starting now from here on in :We're Okanogan's 10TV
 * Now you know that this is the place to be
 * Coming at you with friends and family
 * Hanging out with lots more friends here :And the good times never end here
 * You and Me and 10TV
 * Where the great times begin :Starting now from here on in


 * You and Me and 10TV :Shooting up to the stars, getting down with the songs
 * And it almost feels like we've been here all along
 * Flashing heck of a grin like being in the New Year
 * Giving all that we've got makes you stand up and cheer (10TV)
 * You and Me and 10TV :Where the great times begin
 * Starting now from here on in
 * You and Me and 10TV
