KETN dates backs its establishment to 1952 when Eastern Oklahoma Television Inc. applied for a license to operate a television station on VHF Ch 12. However due to interference issues an allocation of the channel 12 to another location: Waco, TX, Eastern Oklahoma settled on KTEN and Ch 10 slot. KTEN signed on air on June 1, 1954 as the maiden television station in Ada-Sherman market form a studio facilities originally located on Arlington Street in Ada. It was then a primary ABC affiliate which also aired NBC’s content as its secondary affiliate.
When KXII dropped NBC and became an exclusive CBS affiliate in 1977, KTEN started broadcasting NBC programs as its primary affiliate while truncating ABC’s content and went into secondary affiliation with the latter. Eastern Oklahoma on Feb 3, 1985, released the channel to a group of investors led by Durant-based businessman Tom Johnson; the sale however, dragged for three years and completed on Nov 16, 1988. The studios were changed to Katy Depot in downtown Denison. ON March 23, 1998, the channel was acquired by Lockwood Broadcast Group for USD 15.125m.
