CBS Broadcasting is one of the most famous broadcast TV networks in the United States of America which owns such programs as “60 Minutes,” “NCIS,” “FBI,” “Young Sheldon,” and “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.” If you are the owner of Dish Network and a resident of Oklahoma, you would like to know, what number of channels you watch on your local CBS station. The article continues below this ad.
The local CBS affiliate station is the local television station that broadcasts programs from the CBS television network.
The main feed is the network feed, and the CBS Sports channel is a national feed. Local CBS affiliate stations broadcast both CBS’s national programs and news, some sports, and syndicated local programs. As you know Dish Network has its channel numbering, thus the exact channel number of your local CBS affiliate station in Oklahoma depends on which Designated Market Area (DMA) and Media market you belong to in Oklahoma.
There are major media markets that are spread throughout different areas of Oklahoma, and these are Oklahoma City, Tulsa, Lawton-Wichita Falls which covers the southwest part of Oklahoma, Fort Smith-Fayetteville-Springdale-Rogers which covers eastern Oklahoma near Arkansas, Joplin-Pittsburg, which is near Kansas and Missouri and Sherman-Ada in the south. You will therefore have to identify the media market that your area of residence falls in to be able to identify your local CBS station that is available.
This is how to get the number for your local channel.
For instance, if you live in Oklahoma City the CBS affiliate channel is KWTV channel 9. In the Oklahoma City Designated Market Area or DMA, Dish Network viewers can tune into channel 9 to watch KWTV CBS 9.
In the Tulsa metropolitan area, KOTV channel 6 is the local CBS affiliate station, but it broadcasts the Fox program. On Dish Network, KOTV CBS 6 Tulsa is available on local cable channel 6 for the viewers in that DMA.
The television station that airs CBS programs in Lawton, Duncan, Altus, and other regions in southwestern Oklahoma is KAUZ channel 6 which operates under dual affiliation with ABC and CBS. The present location of this station is Dish Network channel number 6 in that market area.
Some of the people who may be on the Oklahoma-Arkansas border may be tuning in to KFSM CBS 5 which is on channel 5 on the designated network of Dish Network. In the southern region of Oklahoma right on the border of Texas, the CBS affiliate television station is KTEN channel 10.
For the residents in Ottawa and Delaware Counties of Oklahoma’s extreme northeastern region, the Joplin Missouri market offers KOAM CBS 7 on Chng 7 through Dish.
So, in summary:
- Oklahoma City: It is aired on KWTV CBS 9 on Channel 9
- Tulsa: KOTV CBS 6 is a TV station that broadcasts on channel 6.
- Lawton, Altus, Southwest OK: KAUZ TV Channel 6 affiliated with CBS
