KFDA-TV (channel 10) is a television station in Amarillo, Texas, United States, affiliated with CBS. It is owned by Gray Television alongside Borger-licensed Telemundo affiliate KEYU (channel 31).

KEYU (TV)
KEYU (channel 31) is a television station licensed to Borger, Texas, United States, serving the Amarillo area as an affiliate of the Spanish-language Telemundo network. It is owned by Gray Television alongside CBS affiliate KFDA-TV (channel 10). The two stations share studios on Broadway Drive (just south of West Cherry Avenue) in northern Amarillo; KEYU's transmitter is located on Dumas Drive (US 87-287) and Reclamation Plant Road in rural unincorporated Potter County. Despite its full-power status, the station's broadcasting radius does not reach the entire Amarillo market (covering a area, compared to KFDA's signal contour). To reach portions of the Texas Panhandle that do not receive KEYU's signal adequately, if at all, KEYU's fourth digital subchannel (affiliated with Ion Television) is simulcast in 480i widescreen standard definition on KFDA's third subchannel (10.3) from a separate transmitter at the KEYU/KFDA studios.
