KHII-TV
On March 7, 2006, Raycom Media announced that KFVE would affiliate with MyNetworkTV as part of a group deal involving many of Raycom-owned affiliates of The WB and UPN (whose consolidation and shutdowns the following September resulted in the creation of The CW Television Network, which would affiliate in Hawaii with a digital subchannel of KHON-TV). KFVE officially joined MyNetworkTV on September 5, 2006 and did not air The WB's final two weeks of prime-time programming (though it continued to air WB daytime and Saturday morning programming until the end of the network's existence).
KOTA-TV
New construction permits for channel 7 in Rapid City and the Lead satellite on channel 5 were granted to Dakota Broadcasting Company, owned by a group of Rapid City businessmen, in April 1975; that November, the stations were assigned the call signs KEVN-TV and KIVV-TV. Dakota Broadcasting soon announced a planned July 6, 1976 debut; meanwhile, Heart of the Black Hills finally shut KRSD-TV and KDSJ-TV down for good on February 29, 1976, leaving the Black Hills region without a local CBS affiliate. However, area cable systems already carried Sioux Falls CBS affiliate KELO-TV, which had been trying to get into Rapid City for some time. After a four-month hiatus, KEVN and KIVV came on the air July 11 as full-time ABC affiliates. KOTA ended its joint-primary affiliation with ABC and NBC, switching to a primary affiliation with NBC and a secondary affiliation with CBS until 1981, when K15AC (channel 15), a translator of KPLO-TV from Reliance (itself a satellite of KELO-TV), was authorized (K15AC was upgraded to full-power operations in 1988 as KCLO-TV, a semi-satellite of KELO).
