KHSD operates as a full-time repeater of KOTA. KNEP's primary channel is a semi-satellite of KOTA, airing separate commercials from studios in Scottsbluff. KNEP was formerly KDUH-TV, and aired its own full-length newscasts for years. However, due to cutbacks in later years, KDUH's newscasts were reduced to inserts in KOTA's weeknight newscasts with a few personalities locally based in Scottsbluff. On May 5, 2016, KNEP's full-length localized newscasts in Scottsbluff were reinstated, upon the launch of "NBC Nebraska Scottsbluff" which airs on KNEP's digital subchannel 4.2. The subchannel operates as a semi-satellite of North Platte's NBC affiliate, KNOP-TV.
