XETV-TDT, virtual channel 6 (UHF digital channel 23), is a Mexican free-to-air television station located in Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico, carrying the Canal 5 network. XETV's terrestrial signal also covers the San Diego, California areaacross the international border in the United States. The station is owned by Mexican media company Grupo Televisa, and its technical operations and transmitter facilities are located on Mount San Antonio in Tijuana.
From its initial sign-on in 1953 until 2017, XETV broadcast English-language programming and operated business offices, and later a studio and newsroom, in San Diego. The station's American operations were managed by Bay City Television, a California-based corporation owned by Televisa.[2][3] It was most recently an affiliate of The CW Television Network. In January 2017, The CW announced it would move its San Diego affiliation from XETV's main channel to a subchannel of KFMB-TV (channel 8.2), effective May 31. XETV ceased its San Diego operations on that same date. (Most San Diego-area pay-television providers still use channel 6 for broadcasts of the local CW affiliate.)
