KLST (channel 8) is a television station in San Angelo, Texas, United States, affiliated with CBS.

The two stations share studios on Armstrong Street in San Angelo; KLST's transmitter is located near Eola, Texas.
Channel 8 is the oldest station in San Angelo, signing on as KTXL-TV in 1953 and changing call signs to KCTV in 1957. It was a CBS affiliate from its first day on air.
