History

Mount Wilson established KMTW-TV as an independent service on June 29, 1966. It sold the station to Kaiser Broadcasting before the official launch of the station. The third commercial UHF station in LA market changed its calls to KBSC-TV @ channel 52. However, it never posed a competitive threat to already established stations like KHJ TV, KTLA, KCOP and KTTV, all being independent.

It hosted cartoons, short films, sitcoms and general entertainment content. It would run half-day schedule with signing on in early noon and closing in late evenings. Weekday afternoon programming was dedicated to children who will have Japanese cartoons. Field Communications purchased the form its partner Kaiser’ station in 1976 with the exception of Cleveland-based WUAB and KBSC, the former was sold to Gaylord Broadcasting. KBSC lagging in ratings and growth was sold to Oak Communications.

At beginning the general entertainment content shared by the station remained unchanged but started to change by April 1977 when it joined ONTV’s programming to air live sports events, movies and other content. It sold its entertainment inventory to KTLA in summer 1979. It also broadcasted Spanish language programs and religious content at that time. English language Christian programs were aired on Sundays. Spanish language content was expanded in 1980 on weekdays and weekends while ONTV would fill the rest of the programing.

The channel was sold to Miami-based NetSpan (forerunner of Telemundo) in Sep 1985. It became the first mainland United States Telemundo station at that time. KBSC separated from the ONTV and calls were changed to KVEA. The former calls: KBSC were later used by Brooking’s base LP station.

In 2001 NBC acquired Telemundo, consequently creating a triopoly with KNBC and KWHY (later sold in 2011) in Los Angeles.
