KREG-TV (channel 3) is a television station in Glenwood Springs, Colorado, United States, broadcasting the classic television network MeTV. It is owned and operated by Weigel Broadcasting, and has a transmitter atop Sunlight Peak.
Since its purchase in 2020 by Weigel, and given KREG-TV has no signal penetration into the Denver metropolitan area, KREG-TV has been positioned as a station serving the Denver media market via cable and satellite, rather than its history as a repeater of stations based in Grand Junction.
History
KCWS
KREG-TV was launched January 28, 1984, by Western Slope Communications, a group of investors, as independent station KCWS[1] on VHF channel 3.[2] It promised the best selection of off-network and first-run syndicated programming available; plus an aggressive regional news operation that pioneered the first long-form morning newscast on Western Slope television.
