	Channel 18 was built by the [[Roman Catholic Diocese of Tucson]] and began broadcasting at the end of 1984 as KDTU. The station, intended as a family-friendly outlet, proved to be a popular—but commercial—[[independent station]], as well as a boondoggle for the diocese, which lost $15 million between 1984 and 1989 and unloaded it at a loss to [[Clear Channel Communications]]. The call sign was changed to KTTU-TV after the sale. Since 1991, KMSB and KTTU have been either commonly operated or owned. The station was affiliated with [[UPN]] from 1995 to 2006 and [[MyNetworkTV]] before becoming Tucson's CW affiliate in 2024.
