KPBI-CA, UHF analog channel 46, was a low-power, Class A MyNetworkTV-affiliated television station licensed to Fort Smith, Arkansas.

The station's programming was also available on channel 34 from Eureka Springs, which shared the KPBI call sign and was attainable over the air in Fort Smith.

These two AM stations were originally programmed to carry Southern Gospel (featuring the on-air talent of Chuck Buckner, Jason Collier, Nancy Rowland a.k.a.

Tonia Trelaine, Mike Vaughn and a few others) and local programming, but around 1994 they were changed to carry sports talk radio (via a satellite feed) and local programming (i.e. "The Huddle", which featured Marty Houston, Jr., John Wilhelm and later Ernie Witt, Jr.).

One area that brought notice to KPBI was the use of locally produced computer animations for commercials and promotional spots.

KPBI was the first station in the DMA to use computer spot playback in the form of the "Virtual Recorder" from ASC Audio Video.

[7] Two of the station's repeaters, KJBW-CA in Springdale and KRBF-CA in Hindsville, also lost their sites, and left the air two days earlier.

[8][9] After failing to find a buyer at a bankruptcy auction,[10] KPBI-CA's repeaters were sold to Pinnacle Media in August 2009 (after having initially been included in Silver Point Finance's acquisition on June 2 of several Equity stations[11]), with Pinnacle assuming control under a local marketing agreement on August 5.
