K13XD (branded as KXD) Channel 13 is the CBS affiliate in Fairbanks, Alaska. It signed on the air on August 7, 1996 as the area's sixth television station, four months after longtime CBS station KTVF dropped the network in favor of NBC. Prior to the station's launch, sister station KFXF temporarily broadcast only a few CBS shows along with those from Fox, such as The Young and the Restless, 60 Minutes, Late Show with David Letterman, and Walker, Texas Ranger. The addition of KXD also meant that Fairbanks would finally have a station for each of the four main networks: KATN (ABC), KFXF (Fox), KTVF (NBC), and KXD (CBS), along with KJNP (TBN) and KUAC (PBS). KXD and KFXF are both owned by Tanana Valley Television. KXD is a Class A operation, though its legal callsign is still of the old translator style.
