owned and operated by the Christian Television Network (CTN). The station's transmitter is located atop Cheyenne Mountain
.
History
The station, which signed on the air in 1992 and maintains a studio in Colorado Springs, was previously a
semi-satellite of KWHD in Denver, owned by LeSEA Broadcasting (now Family Broadcasting Corporation). Both outlets shared the same programming with some exceptions. (KWHD is now KETD, carrying Estrella TV
; the station does still operate a subchannel carrying a schedule of religious programming that remained identical to that of KWHS until 2018.)
In June 2014, it was announced LeSEA had inked an affiliation deal with Cozi TV, KWHS-LD was one of the stations that began carrying the channel.[2] On July 1, 2017, Light TV replaced Cozi TV on KWHS-LD's subchannel.[3][circular reference]
On February 5, 2018, it was announced that LeSEA would sell KWHS-LD, along with Class A station KEEN-CD in Las Vegas and full-power station WHNO in New Orleans, to Clearwater, Florida–based Christian Television Network for $5.7 million.[4] The sale was completed on April 23, 2018.[5]
