KTWO-TV is also available on a network of UHF and VHF translators across the state. It is also available on the second digital subchannel of KGWC and its satellites and translators; as well as the second digital subchannels of KFNB satellites KFNE and KFNR (but not KFNB itself). Under previous owner Equity Broadcasting, it had also been available on a free-to-air satellite uplink (as with all of Equity's stations, hubbed out of Little Rock, Arkansas, and sent to the transmitter via FTA satellite) until Equity went bankrupt and the satellite was sold.
KKTQ-LD (channel 16) in Cheyenne operates as a semi-satellite of KTWO-TV.
