KMPR

12**Not related to the real life Prairie Public Radio station in Minot, North Dakota.
KMPR is the TCN-affiliated station licensed to El Centro, California, serving the Imperial Valley. It is owned by Confection Broadcasting.
== History ==
KMPR signed on on February 28, 1998, as a TCN owned-and-operated station. It aired an hour-long 10 p.m. newscast, NewsChannel 31 at Ten, which premiered the following evening. 
In 2002, Confection Broadcasting bought the station. A morning newscast, NewsChannel 31 Sunrise, was added to the schedule, running from 5:30 to 9 a.m. Channel 31 also rebranded to TV 31, although this was brief, and it switched back to TCN 31 in late 2003.
In 2006, an hour-long 7 p.m. broadcast, as well as weekend morning news shows, were added. One abnormality of KMPR is that it does not carry any weekend evening newscasts; however, their morning shows air for an hour at 6 a.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. 5 and 6 p.m. newscasts launched in 2009.
Syndicated programming on KMPR includes The Six, A Current Affair, and Family Feud. Despite no weekend evening newscasts, a local sports wrap-up show, TCN 31 Overtime, airs Sunday evenings at 10 p.m.
