KUNA-LP


KUNA-LP is a low-powered Telemundo-affiliated television station licensed to Indio, California, United States, serving Palm Springs and the Coachella Valley. It broadcasts an analog signal on UHF channel 15 from a transmitter in the Indio Hills.
Owned by the News-Press & Gazette Company, it is a sister station to Palm Springs-licensed ABC affiliate KESQ-TV, Cathedral City-licensed Class A CBS affiliate KPSP-CD, Class A Fox affiliate KDFX-CD, and Palm Springs-licensed low-powered CW affiliate KCWQ-LD. The five stations share studios on Dunham Way in Thousand Palms.
Due to its low-powered status, KUNA-LP does not broadcast a digital signal of its own, and there are no immediate plans to convert the station's signal to digital. However, the station is simulcast in high definition on KPSP's second digital subchannel, and in standard definition on KESQ's eighth digital subchannel. Both KPSP and KESQ transmit from Edom Hill northeast of Cathedral City and I-10.
