it as a satellite of KTWO. Equity later moved the ABC affiliation in Cheyenne to a low-powered repeater, KKTU-LP (channel 40), and switched KDEV's affiliation to its in-house classic television network, the Retro Television Network. On June 8, 2008, KDEV began simulcasting KKTU-LP's ABC programming over its analog signal (restoring the "ABC 8" branding), and on its second digital subchannel. Nine days later on June 17, 2008, the station changed its call sign to KQCK. On January 4, 2009, a contract conflict between Equity and Luken Communications (which had acquired RTN in June 2008) resulted in many RTN affiliates losing the network's programming. As a result, Luken moved RTN's operations to its headquarters in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and dropped its programming from all Equity-owned affiliates, including KQCK, effective immediately. RTN would eventually sign a deal to affiliate with Sterling-based KCDO-TV (channel 3) that May. KQCK subsequently switched to AMGTV, and then later to @SportsTV. On April 16, 2009, KQCK, along with two other television stations, were purchased at auction by Valley Bank for $7 million. Valley Bank, in turn, filed to sell KQCK and Aurora, Colorado repeater KQDK-CA to an ownership group connected to Fusion Communications on September 9. ABC programming remained on KQCK-DT2 and channel 40, by then renamed KDEV-LP, until 2009, when KTWO began simulcasting its programming over the second digital subchannel of KLWY (channel 27). KQCK and KDEV-LP eventually parted ways; the latter station eventually switched to MyNetworkTV and then Me-TV before shutting down in 2012. In January 2010, KQCK joined the Spanish language network VasalloVision. KQCK was acquired by Casa Media Partners in April 2012. The station subsequently switched its affiliation to MundoFox on August 13, 2012; in late 2014, KQCK dropped MundoFox for the Christian Television Network. Casa Media Partners filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy on April 14, 2015. On January 9, 2017, CTN's parent company, the Christian Television Corporation, agreed to purchase KQCK outright; the sale was completed on June 30, 2017. Technical information Subchannels The station's digital signal is multiplexed: Analog-to-digital conversion KQCK shut down its analog signal, over UHF channel 33, on June 27, 2008, as a result of an equipment failure that forced the station to shut down the analog signal; however, it continued to transmit its programming over its digital signal and on cable via a direct-to-studio transmission link. Due to the cost of repairing the analog facilities, and the proximity
