History

The station received its original construction permit as K63EX from the FCC on June 1, 1992. Originally owned by Browne Mountain Television, it began broadcasting December 7, 1993 on UHF channel 63 and was licensed January 4, 1994. Browne Mountain Television sold the station to He's Alive Broadcasting Association on June 23, 1995 and K63EX became an affiliate of 3ABN - Three Angels Broadcasting Network. The station took the call letters KHBA-LP on June 21, 1996, reflecting station ownership and in August 2003, KHBA moved from channel 63 to channel 52. In July 2006, needing to vacate the 700 MHz band, the station moved from channel 52 to channel 39 and was licensed for operation on channel 39 on January 16, 2007. In December 2008 KHBA was the first low power TV station to convert to digital in Spokane, and its designation was changed to KHBA-LD. KHBA-LD now broadcasts four distinct channels, airing The Hope Channel on 35.1, 3ABN on 35.2, Open Book TV, a locally operated, all-Slavic, 24/7 Christian channel on 35.3, and 3ABN's Dare to Dream network on 35.4.

gollark: I really do *not* like hydro going on about how "altruistic" he is when he also goes around extracting huge profits. I mean, self-interest, sure. Fine with me. But effectively lying about it?
gollark: I mean, he probably loses money buying useless things like diamond, but profits everywhere else.
gollark: "Losing money"? Really?
