KBYU-TV is a former PBS station affiliate located in Provo, Utah, also serving Salt Lake City, Utah, which is served by KUED. It was founded in December 17, 1958 as KLOR-TV. They changed their name to KBYU-TV in 1962 and they first broadcasted in November 15, 1965. It is owned and operated by Brigham Young University, which also stands out as the station's call letters. On July 2, 2018, it ended its affiliation with PBS in favor for being a relay station for BYUtv, Brigham Young University's other channel.
