KCEB is a full-service television station in Longview, Texas, broadcasting locally as the CW affiliate on channel 54. Owned by Estes Broadcasting, KCEB broadcasts at the maximum output power of 5000 kW from its transmitter in East Mountain, northwest of Longview, and covers some of East Texas.
KCEB signed on July 27, 2003 as an affiliate of UPN, as part of a simulcasting network including low-power stations KTPN-LP in Tyler and KLPN-LP in Longview. As a UPN affiliate, KCEB branded on-air as UPN KCEB-TV UPN58-54-48/KLPN-LP.
On January 1, 2006, KCEB lost the UPN affiliation to then-CBS affiliate KYTX. The station immediately switched its affiliation to The WB. Previously, that network had been seen locally on the cable-only KWTL. During the transition, KTPN and KLPN became independent stations (and now affiliates of My Network TV).
Shortly after receiving the affiliation, on January 24, 2006, it was announced that the UPN and WB television networks would merge into a single network, The CW, set to launch September 18, 2006. KCEB is the current affiliate for this network.
KCEB currently has a construction permit on file with the FCC to move to channel 38, and move their transmitter to near New London.
