KDRV (channel 12) is a television station in Medford, Oregon, United States, affiliated with ABC. The station is owned by Allen Media Group, and maintains studios on Knutson Avenue (near Rogue Valley International–Medford Airport) in north Medford. Its transmitter is located at the edge of Wolf Creek Park in rural northeastern Josephine County (near Golden).
KDKF (channel 31) in Klamath Falls operates as a full-time satellite of KDRV; this station's transmitter is located atop Stukel Mountain. KDKF covers areas of southwest/south-central Oregon that receive a marginal to a non-existent over-the-air signal from KDRV, although there is significant overlap between the two stations' contours otherwise. KDKF is a straight simulcast of KDRV; on-air references to KDKF are limited to Federal Communications Commission (FCC)-mandated hourly station identifications during newscasts and other programming. Aside from its transmitter, KDKF does not maintain any physical presence locally in Klamath Falls.[citation needed]
