Owned by MediaCast LLC, it is operated under a Shared Service Agreement/Joint Sales Agreement with Lake Hill Broadcasting, which owns dual CBS/H Channel affiliate KCLH.

== History ==
Lake Hill received a permit from the FCC to build the KCLH transmitter in 2017. It also received a permit to build the KLHO transmitter on the same property via a partnered company that builds and owns transmitters throughout the country, Towers Plus Inc. After the tower was completed, Towers Plus "sold" the permit to MediaCast LLC, a shell company of Lake Hill, for $1. In reality, Lake Hill paid Towers Plus $5 Million to construct the tower for KCLH and KLHO. However, KCLH's construction permit was owned by Lake Hill, whereas KLHO's construction permit was owned by Towers Plus itself. Shortly before the launch of KLHO, MediaCast entered into a SSA/JSA with Lake Hill. KLHO launched on February 3, 2021, as an affiliate of Univision and The CW.
