KSAW-LD (channel 6) is a low-power television station in Twin Falls, Idaho, United States, affiliated with ABC. Owned by the E. W. Scripps Company, the station maintains an advertising sales office in the Blue Lakes Office Park on Falls Avenue in Twin Falls (housed in the same building as the sales office of NBC outlet KTFT-LD), and its transmitter is located on Flat Top Butte near Jerome, Idaho.
Although identifying as a separate station in its own right, KSAW-LD is considered a semi-satellite of Nampa-licensed KIVI-TV (channel 6), which serves the Boise market. KSAW clears all network programming as provided through its parent and simulcasts some of KIVI's newscasts, but airs a separate offering of syndicated programming; there are also separate evening newscasts originating from KIVI's studios, as well as separate station identifications and commercial inserts targeting the Magic Valley. KSAW's master control, as well as most internal operations, are housed at KIVI's studios on East Chisholm Drive in Nampa (along I-84/US 30/SH-55).
KSAW-LD's signal simulcasts three of KIVI's digital subchannels (carrying Laff, Ion Mystery and Court TV); however, none of them are carried on the Sparklight cable system in Twin Falls.
