KSNG channel 11 is a NBC affiliate based in Garden City, Kansas. It is owned by New Vision Television, Inc.

KSNG is part of the Kansas State Network (KSN) network of NBC affiliates, repeating the signal of KSNW in Wichita, Kansas, with local advertising and news inserts.

It signed on the air on November 5, 1958 as KGLD, a satellite of Great Bend's KCKT-TV (now KSNC), under the ownership of Central Kansas Television Co., Inc. The two stations became known as the "Tri-Circle Network." They were joined in 1959 by KOMC-TV, channel 8 in Oberlin.

The letters in KGLD's call letters stood for Garden City, Liberal and Dodge City.

In 1962, the FCC ruled that central and western Kansas was part of the Wichita market. Central Kansas Television then bought Wichita's KARD-TV and merged it with its existing three-station network. The group was renamed the Kansas State Network, with KARD as the flagship. KGLD was renamed KSNG in 1983 as part of KSN's effort to help viewers in its huge coverage area think of its four stations as one large network.

On July 24, 2007, Montecito announced the sale of all of its stations to New Vision Television. The sale was finalized on November 1 of that year. [http://broadcastingcable.com/article/CA6462752.html]

In April 2008, New Vision Television have announced on ksn.com that in February 17, 2009, KSNG's digital singal will be moving from its position at channel 16 to channel 11.
