On cable, KOKI-DT3 is available on Cox Communications channel 69.

KOKI-TV
From 1989 to 1991, KOKI held the local broadcast rights to NFL preseason games from the Dallas Cowboys; the station, which assumed the preseason telecast rights to both teams from KGCT as a result of that station's two-year operational cessation, carried six to eight prime time game telecasts annually. The rights to both the Cowboys and Chiefs telecasts were transferred to KGCT beginning with the 1991 preseason. Since September 1994, most Cowboys telecasts carried on KOKI consist of those carried regionally or nationally by Fox, which through the network's contract with the NFL, holds primary broadcast rights to the National Football Conference (NFC). In addition to carrying Fox-televised games involving in-conference opponents, since 2014, Cowboys games carried on the station also include certain cross-flexed games against opponents in the American Football Conference (AFC) that were originally scheduled to air on CBS. (Most Cowboys preseason games not televised by Fox or by other broadcast or cable networks are carried over-the-air locally on CW affiliate KQCW (channel 19) through that station's agreement with the team's syndication service.) In addition, for the 1990 season (the first year that the NFL allowed a live preseason game to air on a team's out-of-market station), the station carried preseason games involving the Kansas City Chiefs, running four prime time game telecasts during that season.
