KZNO-LP is a low-power television station is licensed to Big Bear Lake, California, USA, but broadcasting to Los Angeles on analog channel 6 as an independent station. As of 2016, the station is owned by the Venture Technologies Group.

History

The station was founded on August 7, 1996 as translator K06MU. It was also available to area subscribers of Charter Cable on channel 6. The station's programming at the time was similar to a public-access television cable TV channel, consisting primarily of news, public affairs and travel programs produced by local residents of the Big Bear Valley.

In 2016, ownership was transferred from Bear Valley Broadcasting to the current licensee. The current licensee, Venture Technologies, previously owned KSFV, which also operated on analog channel 6 as a radio station. The station now transmits from Mount Harvard, a peak adjacent to Mount Wilson in Los Angeles County, as a Spanish-religious station.

Since KZNO-LP is a low-power station, it was not required to switch to a digital signal on June 12, 2009, as required of all full-power TV stations in the United States. The FCC has set July 2021 as the deadline for that transition. The station's audio feed can be heard on local radio at 87.7 FM since analog channel 6 is in the 82-88 MHz range.
