[edit] Programming
The stations programming is mainly simulcasted from KNDX in Bismarck; KXND in Minot inserts commercials targeted for the Minot and Williston areas.
[edit] The CW/My Network TV
When UPN was discontinued on in 2006, and replaced with The CW, West Dakota Fox was offered both as a secondary affiliation; however station management has not made any lasting decision to date.
[edit] Digital television
Because they were granted original construction permits after the FCC finalized the DTV allotment plan on April 21, 1997 [1], the stations did not receive companion channels for digital television stations. Instead, on or before February 17, 2009, which is the end of the digital TV conversion period for full-service stations, KNDX and KXND will be required to turn off their analog signals and turn on their digital signals (called a "flash-cut").
