KXVU-LD (channel 17) is a low-power television station in Chico, California, United States, serving the Chico–Redding market as an affiliate of Antenna TV. It is owned by Sinclair Broadcast Group alongside ABC/Fox affiliate KRCR-TV (channel 7), KCVU (channel 20), and four other low-power stations: MyNetworkTV affiliates KRVU-LD (channel 21) and KZVU-LD (channel 22), Univision affiliate KUCO-LD (channel 27), and UniMás affiliate KKTF-LD (channel 30). The stations share studios on Auditorium Drive east of downtown Redding and maintain a news bureau and sales office at the former Sainte Television Group facilities on Main Street in downtown Chico. KXVU-LD's transmitter is located along Cohasset Road northeast of Chico.

The station started broadcasting on March 31, 2006. It was founded by Chester Smith of Sainte Partners II, L.P., joining sister station and Univision affiliate KUCO-LD as the only two Spanish-language stations in the North Valley until they also founded UniMás affiliate KKTF-LD (channel 30). After the sale of Sainte's assets to Bonten Media Group (owners of ABC affiliates KRCR-TV in Redding and KAEF-TV (channel 23) in Eureka) in 2014, the new owners sold the rights of Telemundo to K4 Media Holdings and moved the station from KXVU-LP to KNVN-DT2, which is now operated by Allen Media Broadcasting.

On April 21, 2017, Sinclair announced its intent to purchase the Bonten stations for $240 million. The sale was completed September 1.
