Prior to KIVI-TV's establishment, there had been two failed attempts to establish a station on the Nampa channel 6 allocation.
The first of these earned the distinction of being Idaho's first television station. KFXD-TV broadcast from June 18 to August 11, 1953. However, it was unable to obtain a network affiliation, struggled to find programming and was a two-man operation, resulting in its prompt closure. It was the first VHF television station in the United States to cease broadcasting altogether.
KCIX-TV had a longer run on the air, from November 1958 to January 1960. However, it, too, failed to secure an ABC affiliation, and the station went silent awaiting the completion of a merger deal with a radio and television station in Pocatello that fell apart.
==KITC==
===February–April 1974===
KITC signed on February 1, 1974, representing its ownership (Idaho Television Corporation). It was delayed a month by the collapse of the tower for Pocatello sister station KPTO (changed before launch to KPVI) during construction. For the first time, Boise had full network service from all three stations; previously, ABC programming was split between CBS affiliate KBOI-TV (channel 2) and NBC station KTVB (channel 7). On April 15, KITC changed its call sign to KIVI.

Idaho Television Company sold KIVI and its then-sister KPVI in Pocatello to Futura Titanium Corporation in 1977. Futura, in turn, sold the station to the Evening Post Publishing Company in 1981, and Evening Post struck a deal to sell the station to Milwaukee-based Journal Communications in 2001, with the deal closing in 2002.

The coloring was changed from gold, maroon and silver to red, white and blue; this was to allow the station to utilize the same standardized Renderon graphics package used by Journal's Milwaukee flagship WTMJ-TV and other company-owned stations.
