History

The station was previously a satellite station of ABC affiliate KPVI in Pocatello, Idaho, with the call letters KKVI, while carrying Fox as a secondary network in off-hours. This arrangement ended when KPVI dropped ABC to become an NBC affiliate. KKVI could not operate as an NBC affiliate because KTVB in Boise, Idaho provided NBC network service to Twin Falls via translator. The station switched to Fox full time. KXTF Carried LATV on KXTF-DT2 or 34.2 subchannel from 2007-2009

Newscasts

As of October 30, 2006, KXTF simulcasts the 9 p.m. newscast of sister station KFXP, which is produced by KPVI; it is titled "KPVI on Fox News at 9".

Translator

KXTF-TV is rebroadcast on one translator.[1] K41JF-D is owned and operated by the Hagerman Translator District instead of Intermountain West Communications Company and KXTF-TV.
