History

The station began with an original construction permit granted to Rollin Wong on November 6, 1995 to build a low-power station on VHF channel 12 (as K12OZ) to serve Fresno and surrounding area. 3ABN acquired the station in June 1998 and was granted a license on October 21, 1998. The license was upgraded to Class A on March 23, 2001. On February 6, 2013, the station's license to broadcast in digital was granted, with the station moving to channel 17 and changing its call sign to K17JI-D. 3ABN sold K17JI-D and 13 other stations to HC2 Holdings for $9.6 million in 2017.[2]
