KRWG-TV, virtual channel 22 (UHF digital channel 23), is a PBS member television station located in Las Cruces, New Mexico, United States. The station is owned by the Regents of New Mexico State University. KRWG-TV maintains studio facilities located at Milton Hall on McFie Circle in Las Cruces, and its transmitter is located atop Tortugas Mountain in central Dona Ana County (east of the Las Cruces city limits). On cable, the station is available on Time Warner Cable channel 4 (El Paso-based CBS affiliate KDBC-TV, which broadcasts on virtual channel 4, is instead carried on channel 3) and in high definition on digital channel 886.
The station's signal is relayed on low-power analog translator stations across southwestern New Mexico.
The station first signed on the air on June 29, 1973; its call letters were named after Ralph Willis Goddard, an educator and pioneer broadcaster in Las Cruces, who was employed as an instructor at the college; Goddard founded Albuquerque AM radio station KOB (now KKOB). The KRWG call letters were first used by the sister radio station at 90.7 FM that signed on in 1964.
