KVDA (channel 60) is a television station in San Antonio, Texas, United States, serving as the market's local outlet for the Spanish-language network Telemundo. The station is owned and operated by NBCUniversal's Telemundo Station Group and maintains studios on San Pedro Avenue in North Central San Antonio, near the enclave of Olmos Park; its transmitter is located off US 181 northeast of Elmendorf.
KVDA has been a Telemundo station since it signed on in September 1989. The network financed its construction by a group of local businessmen and then bought the station within a year of its launch. In local news ratings, KVDA has typically lagged its primary competitor, Univision station KWEX-DT.
