Falls Broadcasting and Oregon Trail Broadcasting, part of James Rogers' Intermountain West Communications, have agreed to sell KPVI Pocatello and KXTF Twin Falls to Idaho Broadcast Partners for $1 million.

KPVI is an NBC affiliate.

KXTF is independent; it split from the Fox affiliate group last July.

The deal is subject to regulatory approval. Kalil & Co. brokered the transaction.

Rogers owns KSNV Las Vegas, among other stations. Earlier this month, his group sold KYMA Yuma.
