Mid-Rivers Communications (based in Circle, Montana) carries KSVI on cable in Glendive, Montana (the smallest DMA in the U.S. according to Nielsen), as that market has no local ABC affiliate of its own.

KSVI's programming is relayed on translator station K25BP-D (channel 25) in Billings, in areas where KSVI's signal is poor. It can also be seen in Miles City on K16DH-D (channel 16), and in Howard on K32MN-D (channel 32).
