KULR-TV is a NBC affiliate broadcasting on channel 8 (Cable channel 9) in Billings, Montana. Its first broadcast was in March 15, 1958 as KGHL-TV. The callsign was changed to KULR in 1963 and it is still affiliated with NBC (though during 1980 to circa 1983, it was an ABC affiliate, while KOUS held the NBC affiliation). KULR is currently-owned by Max Media. In Billings, KULR also operates cable-only CW affiliate, KWBM.

KULR's programming and schedule is also seen on KYUS-TV in Miles City, Montana; that station is owned and operated by Maryland businessman Stephan Marks, who also owns KXGN-TV in Glendive, Montana, WBKB-TV in Alpena, Michigan, and WBKP and WBUP in Marquette, Michigan. KULR programs and operates the station on Marks' behalf. Previously, KYUS was notorious for being the smallest network affiliate in America, which, at one time, featured a man who did the news, sports, weather and reporting himself -- he was also featured in the late-1970s on NBC's Real People and in TV Guide for his career. During the 1980s, KYUS became mainly a satellite station in the 1980s, first with KOUS, then with KULR, after KOUS flipped to Fox as KHMT.
