What does KPDX mean in Airport Codes?

KPDX

KPDX, virtual channel 49 (UHF digital channel 30), is a MyNetworkTV-affiliated television station serving Portland, Oregon, United States that is licensed to Vancouver, Washington. As such, it is the only major commercial station in Portland that is licensed to the Washington side of the market. KPDX is owned by the Meredith Local Media subsidiary of Des Moines, Iowa-based Meredith Corporation, as part of a duopoly with Portland-licensed Fox affiliate KPTV (channel 12). Although the two stations share studios on NW Greenbrier Parkway in Beaverton and transmitter facilities in the Sylvan-Highlands section of Portland, master control and some internal operations are based at Meredith's West Coast hub facility at the studios of CBS-affiliated sister station KPHO-TV in Phoenix, Arizona. On cable, KPDX is available on channel 13 on Comcast Xfinity and other providers in the market. The station's signal is relayed in Central Oregon through translator station KUBN-LD (channel 9) in Bend, making the station available in about two-thirds of the state. Since February 2018, KPDX has been branded as Fox 12 Plus, an extension of the branding used by KPTV.
