[edit] History

The station started broadcasting in August 2000 as the local Fox affiliate. Due to low ratings, the station dropped the Fox affiliation and became an affiliate of Pax TV. After their affiliation agreement with Pax TV expired in 2005, they became an affiliate of The WB, as part of The WB 100+ Station Group. In September 2006, KMTF became the affiliate for The CW Television Network and become part of The CW Plus, the successor of The WB 100+ Station Group.
