KDUH-TV is a semi-satellite of KOTA-TV, airing separate commercials. It once produced its own full-length newscasts as well. However, due to recent cutbacks, KDUH's newscasts have been reduced to inserts in KOTA-TV's newscasts. KHSD-TV and KSGW-TV are full repeaters of KOTA-TV.
KDUH-TV is one of two ABC affiliates on Dish Network's Cheyenne-Scottsbluff local feed. The other is KTWO-TV in Casper, which is carried on KLWY's digital subcarrier.
When KHSD was being launched, the Duhamels made a deal with KDIX-TV in Dickinson, North Dakota (now KXMA) to provide programming for that station, as KDIX was close enough to Dickinson that its engineers would be able to pick up KHSD's signal. Consequently, KDIX was practically a satellite of KOTA from November 1966 until KEVN signed on nearly a decade later.
KSGW airs local Sheridan commercials alongside other network ads. Newscasts feature spliced in weather forecasts specifically for Northeastern Wyoming. The Sheridan office for KOTA often produces local news segments that air periodically on the main network-wide newscast.
KOTA is also operating a fill-in translator on channel 18 that serves the immediate part of the Rapid City area.
KOTA-TV also operates the following low-power translators:
- K06JM 6 Gillette, Wyoming (repeating KSGW)
- K02NT 2 Scottsbluff, Nebraska (repeating KDUH)
- K08IP Baker, Montana (repeating KHSD)
- K13WT Plevna, Montana (repeating KOTA)
