Pioneer Public Television is a regional public television network in the U.S. state of Minnesota, primarily serving the southwest and west-central portions of the state. Signals from the stations can also be received in Iowa, South Dakota, and a portion of North Dakota. The organization is based in Appleton, Minnesota. The primary stations are KWCM channel 10 (31 digital) in Appleton, KSMN channel 20 (15 digital) in Worthington and K49FA channel 49 in Fergus Falls, MN. Several other broadcast translators carry the signal into other communities. Pioneer Public TV is a member of the PBS network. It is operated by the West Central Minnesota Educational Television Company.

Pioneer-produced shows

Some locally-produced shows include Country Spires and two programs produced with the University of Minnesota Morris, Prairie Yard and Garden and Minnesota Rivers and Fields. These shows have also been shown on KTCI channel 17 in the Twin Cities as part of that station's "Minnesota Channel," which carries local shows on Saturday and Sunday evenings.

Broadcast Translators

In addition to its three primary transmitters, Pioneer Public TV also uses a network of broadcast translators to carry its signal:

  • Alexandria 30
  • Jackson 45
  • Goodall 46
  • Frost 65
