KHRL

KRBW-TV, virtual channel 65 (UHF digital channel 36), is a MyNetworkTV-affiliated television station serving Kirksville, Missouri and Ottumwa, Iowa, United States, licensed in Colony, Missouri. The station is owned by the Sinclair Broadcast Group, as part of a duopoly with ABC affiliate KTVO (channel 3). The two stations share studio facilities located on US 63 two mile snotrh of Kirksville; KRBW maintains transmitter facilities located in Downing, Missouri.

History
The station began operation as an independent station on June 7, 1993, airing vintage sitcoms, cartoons and older movies. It was owned by Rainbow Media, a subsidiary of Cablevision Systems Corporation. KRBW became the Kirksville/Ottumwa area affiliate of the United Paramount Network, when the network debuted on January 16, 1995. Since UPN only provided two hours of network programming two nights a week at launch, KRBW essentially still programmed itself as an independent station. Chris-Craft Industries, part-owner of UPN (through its United Television unit) bought the station in 1998, making KRBW the first and only owned-and-operated station of a major network in the Kirksville/Ottumwa market. In 2000, Chris-Craft sold KRBW to Sinclair Broadcast Group, creating a duopoly with ABC affiliate KTVO.

On February 22, 2006--almost a month after the formation of The CW--Fox announced the formation of MyNetworkTV, with former sister station WRBW and the other Fox-owned UPN stations as the nuclei. To reflect the switch, KRBW changes its branding to "My65 Heartland" to differentiate from its Orlando counterpart. With the impending switch to MyNetworkTV, channel 65's on-air branding was changed to "My 65" beginning in May 2006. Despite MyNetworkTV's announcement that its launch date would be September 5, 2006, UPN continued to broadcast on stations across the country until September 15, 2006. While some UPN affiliates that switched to MyNetworkTV aired the final two weeks of UPN programming outside its regular primetime period, KRBW dropped UPN's programming entirely on August 31, 2006.

Newscast
Since the 1990's, ABC affiliate KTVO began producing a 10 p.m. newscast for KRBW under a news share agreement.
