It originally carried programming from CBS, NBC, ABC, and DuMont.[1] Eventually, after KRDO-TV signed on and took the NBC affiliation, DuMont folded, and what is now KOAA-TV moved into the Colorado Springs market and took the NBC affiliation from KRDO-TV (which switched to ABC), KKTV became a sole CBS affiliate. is the 341st day of the year (342nd in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...

Current owner Gray Television acquired KKTV when they bought most of Benedek's stations in April 2002.

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 newscasts at 6:30 and 9 PM seen only on My KKTV. KKTV has not been able to boost the signal, which results in a very poor signal for much of the market.
