## History

KRBW signed on the air on July 6, 1972 as KTMA, the independent station in Lawton and Wichita Falls. In 1995, KTMA became Texoma's WB affiliate and changed it's call letters to KWBT. KWBT was known on air as "WB2" and "Texoma's WB". In 2006, KWBT became the CW affiliate and changed it's call letters to KCWT. KCWT was known on air as "Texoma's CW". In 2011, KCWT disaffiliated with the CW and became the new home for the Rainbow Dash Network. Because of it, KCWT changed it's call letters to KRBW. In 2015, KRBW launched a 9PM Newscast called RDN 2 News. On March 16, 2016, Kruger Broadcasting traded KRBW and its satellites to BeloOne for WBSP-TV in Gainesville, FL.
