KVII-TV (channel 7) is a television station in Amarillo, Texas, United States, affiliated with ABC and The CW Plus. Owned by Sinclair Broadcast Group, the station maintains studios at One Broadcast Center between South Pierce and South Buchanan streets in downtown Amarillo, and its transmitter is located west of US 87/287, in unincorporated Potter County.
KVIH-TV (channel 12) in Clovis, New Mexico, operates as a full-time satellite of KVII-TV; this station's transmitter is located along State Road 88 (east of Portales). KVIH-TV covers areas of northeastern and east-central New Mexico that receive a marginal to non-existent over-the-air signal from KVII-TV, although there is significant overlap between the two stations' contours otherwise. KVIH-TV is a straight simulcast of KVII-TV; on-air references to KVIH-TV are limited to Federal Communications Commission (FCC)-mandated hourly station identifications during newscasts and other programming. Besides the transmitter, KVIH-TV does not maintain any physical presence in Clovis.
