KMSG is rebroadcast on KVVG-LD channel 54.1 in Visalia. KVVG-LD started out as KVVG-LP, an affiliate of Almavision for the Visalia area in early 2005. Formerly on channel 31, it later moved to channel 54. KVVG-LP changed to Tvida Vision in mid-2005. As of 2011, the station converted to a digital signal, as KVVG-LD.

The KVVG calls were originally used on a DuMont affiliate on channel 27 in Tulare in the 1950s.

Until mid-2006, KMSG's programming was also seen on KPMC-LP (now KZKC-LP) channel 42 in Bakersfield, which was sold to McGraw-Hill, becoming a standalone Azteca America affiliate.

gollark: Wow! This is rather tremendous-sounding.
