History
The station signed on in 1998 as an NBC affiliate with the call letters KNBN-LP. In 2000, Rapid Broadcasting began broadcasting NBC programming on full-power KNBN channel 21. Before KNBN's upgrade to a full power station, KUSA in Denver had served as Rapid City's de facto NBC affiliate on cable TV systems. In 2003, channel 27 became The WB affiliate KWBH-LP, and carried programming from The CW Plus' predecessor, The WB 100+ Station Group. On September 2006, UPN and The WB merged to be The CW. KWBH joined the new network upon its launch.
