[edit] Trivia
The KRTV callsign was originally used for a UHF station on Channel 17 in Little Rock, Arkansas, affiliated with both CBS and NBC, that was Arkansas' first TV station when it signed on in 1953. However, it went off the air a year later as VHF stations KARK-TV and KTHV were preparing to take its network affiliations. The local ABC affiliate, KATV (previously of Pine Bluff), then moved to Little Rock and took over its studio until it burned down in 1957.
Ironically, KRTV isn't the only station in Great Falls whose callsign was once used in Arkansas; its competitor KLMN bears the original call letters of Fort Smith station KFTA-TV.
