In the mid 70s they showed games on channel 11, then in late 70s they went to WPGH 53 which at the time was an independent UHF station. After WPGH become a charter Fox affiliate the penguins split time between Fox 53 and the regional cable sports network KBL. From 1990 to 1996 the Penguins split time between KBL and KDKA. In 1996-97 they showed some games on channel 22, and on Fox and KBL rebranded to Fox Sports Pittsburgh.

Since the beginning of the 1997 season, regionally televised games have not been available over-the-air

There was some glorious time in there that I remember the Outdoor Life Network having hockey games, evolving into Versus, then NBCSN, then getting put down. That was a heck of a run too. My earliest memories of Pens games was KBL.
