KGMB

KGMB is the licensed broadcast affiliate of Columbia Broadcasting System in Hawaii. Based in Honolulu and broadcasting on channel 9, the station is currently owned by Emmis Communications and has satellite feeds on all the major Hawaiian Islands to rebroadcast programs outside of metropolitan Honolulu. KGMB was the first television station in Hawaii, airing its first programs on December 1, 1952. It aired shows from all the major networks in the United States. Its first owners were Hawaii Broadcasting System, Honolulu Star-Bulletin and future congressman Cecil Heftel. By the time Lee Enterprises of Davenport, Iowa purchased KGMB in 1977, it was airing exclusively CBS programming. In 2000, media consolidation allowed Emmis Communications which had already owned rival KHON to purchase KGMB. Today, ''KGMB9'' brands itself as ''Hawaii's Severe Weather Station''. ==Logos== Image:KGMB9oldlogo.png|KGMB 1990s logo Image:KGMB9logo.png|KGMB logo in the 1980s, and since 2004 ==Relay Stations== * KGMV Channel 3, Wailuku * KGMD Channel 9 (Digital Channel 8), Hilo * K57BI Channel 57, Waimea * K69BZ Channel 69, Lihue ==Resources== * [http://kgmb.com/ KGMB Channel 9] * [http://www.emmis.com/ Emmis Communications] * [http://www.mcsittel.com/html/tvg-hi.htm TV Guide: Hawaii Edition] - old station logos Television stations in Hawaii CBS network affiliates
