History

Early history

The station first signed on the air on July 2, 1954 as KGEO-TV. Founded by George Streets, it was originally licensed to Enid, and was the only full-power VHF station in northern Oklahoma. Channel 5 has been an ABC affiliate since it signed on; during the late 1950s, the station also had a brief affiliation with the NTA Film Network. In 1957, the station built a new transmitter tower near Crescent, which helped increase its signal reach into Oklahoma City. Later that year, the station was sold to Cimarron Television (which included among its investors, oilmen Dean A. McGee and John E. Kirkpatrick, and state senator Robert S. Kerr).
