The original construction permit for the channel was released by FCC on June 10, 1994; KAIO were the calls assigned to the television service on Sep 1, 1994. Initially intended to make it a non-commercial television, the idea was later abandoned and it changed its call letters to KTLM on Oct 5, 1998. With new calls came new affiliate Telemundo as it beat out XHRIO to take the Spanish regional network. XHRIO had been struggling to reach Lower Rio Grande Valley; the station signed on air on Aug 1, 1999.

KTLM was on market and eventually bought by Sunbelt Multimedia in 2000. The company had been operating the service since its launch. Sunbelt again put up the channel for sale and transferred it to Patrick Communications to operate it in the receivership after the approval of Federal Communications Commission. The channel was purchased by Telemundo on Dec 31, 2012. KTLM on June 12, 2009 completed digital transition after abandoning its analog signal.
