KXNW (channel 34) is a television station in Eureka Springs, Arkansas, United States, serving Northwest Arkansas and the Arkansas River Valley as an affiliate of MyNetworkTV. It is owned by Nexstar Media Group alongside Rogers-licensed NBC affiliate KNWA-TV (channel 51) and Fort Smith–licensed Fox affiliate KFTA-TV (channel 24). The three stations share studios on Dickson Street in downtown Fayetteville, with a satellite studio in Rogers and a news bureau and sales office on Kelley Highway in Fort Smith. Although Eureka Springs is located in the Springfield, Missouri, media market, Nielsen considers KXNW to be part of the Fort Smith–Fayetteville market.
KXNW's transmitter is located on Humphrey Mountain near Garfield. Even though it broadcasts a digital signal of its own, its broadcasting radius does not reach Fort Smith. Therefore, the station is simulcast in high definition on KFTA-TV's fifth digital subchannel from a transmitter in unincorporated northeastern Crawford County (south of Artist Point). Instead of channel 24.5, KFTA-DT5 maps to channel 34.1.
