KKTV first went on the air on December 7, 1952 as the first television station in southern Colorado. It originally carried programming from DuMont, CBS, and ABC.[1] Eventually, after KRDO-TV signed on and took the ABC affiliation, DuMont folded, and what is now KOAA-TV signed on as an NBC affiliate, KKTV became a sole CBS affiliate.
In late 1982, KKTV's original local owners sold the station to the Seattle-based The Ackerley Group, in turn becoming one of that company's earliest acquisitions. Ackerley owned the station until early 1999 when they swapped KKTV to Benedek Broadcasting in exchange for that company's KCOY in Santa Maria, California. Current owner Gray Television acquired KKTV when they bought most of Benedek's stations in April 2002.
On June 29, 2006, KKTV announced plans that on September 5, 2006 they would launch an affiliate with FOX's new sister network MyNetworkTV on the station's DT2 sub-channel, to be known as My KKTV. [2]
Gray has registered the "mykktv.com" domain for its launch, however at this point the domain goes to a redirect site. Currently, My KKTV's website is located at "kktv.com/mntv".
Other programming on My KKTV includes replays and extra runs of KKTV's syndicated programming and some syndicated programs of its own. For newscasts, My KKTV features rebroadcasts of KKTV's morning, Noon, and 10 PM newscasts as well as newscasts at 6:30 and 9 PM seen only on My KKTV.
