KQOC

KQOC is an UPN affiliate serving Paradise, Nevada, and the Paradise area. Broadcasting on channel 57, KQOC is owned and operated by Gannett Communications. KQOC was launched on Jan. 3, 2000 by Hoskins Broadcasting as an independent. In 2006, shortly after KCWP (then KUPP) left to join MyNetworkTV, KQOC became an affiliate of UPN. Oakhurst Broadcasting bought the station in 2010. On Jan. 30, 2016, it was announced that Oakhurst Broadcasting (as well as Higgins Broadcasting and Island Television) would be merging into Adelphia Communications. In order to be in compliance with the FCC rules, Oakhurst sold the station to Evans Communications. On May 17, 2017, KQOC was sold to Gannett Communications.
