The Federal Communications Commission issued a construction permit for the station to BDI Broadcasting, Inc. on 1999-08-05 and assigned it the call sign KBPQ.[3] On 2000-12-11, BDI assigned the permit to BL Broadcasting (both companies were subsidiaries of Omni Broadcasting).[4] On 2002-01-23, the station changed its call sign to the current KBLB.[5] The station received its license to cover on 2002-03-28.[6]

Hubbard Broadcasting announced on November 13, 2014 that it would purchase the Omni Broadcasting stations, including KBLB.[7] The sale was completed on February 27, 2015, at a purchase price of $8 million for the 16 stations and one translator.[8]
