WIBW-TV (channel 13) is a television station in Topeka, Kansas, United States, affiliated with CBS and MyNetworkTV.Owned by Gray Media, the station maintains studios on Commerce Place (next to the interchange of I-70, I-470, US 40, US 75 and K-4) in west-southwestern Topeka, and its transmitter is located on Windy Hill Road in Maple Hill.
WIBW transmits at 5,000 watts around the clock. A single non-directional tower is used during the day. Due to WIBW's low transmitting frequency, plus Kansas's flat terrain and excellent ground conductivity, [5] the station has an unusually large daytime coverage area, equivalent to that of a full-power FM station.
The company also owned WIBW (580 AM) and WIBW-TV, along with a daily newspaper, The Topeka Capital-Journal. At first, WIBW-FM simulcast the AM station, though in the late 1960s, the FCC was encouraging AM-FM radio stations to offer different programming. WIBW-FM switched to an album rock format known as "Rock 97 and "The Rock of Kansas".
