'''KNNN-LP''' (known as '''Hella 87.7''') is a [[LPTV|low-power]] [[television station]] in [[Redding, California]], broadcasting locally in [[analog TV]] on VHF channel 6. Founded September 16, 2003, it is owned by Venture Technologies Group, LLC. The station currently operates and markets itself as a radio station using the audio portion of NTSC channel 6 (87.75 [[MHz]]) to broadcast audio (most FM radio receivers can receive this frequency at 87.7 on the low end of the FM dial).

The radio station, '''KNNN-FM''' 87.7 (owned by [[Mapleton Communications]]), began operations in 2010 as a "Hank FM" [[country music]] station after the original KNNN station (located at 99.3 FM at the time) changed formats to [[news/talk]] and its call letters to [[KWLZ|KQMS-FM]] (since has become [[KWLZ]]-FM).  The station currently airs an indie and alternative format and goes by the name "Hella 87.7" and is operated by AvivHella Meadia Group LLC. of Redding. That change occured in December 2016.  <ref>http://www.allaccess.com/net-news/archive/story/161039/knnn-lp-redding-ca-flips-from-country-to-alternati</ref>

KNNN-LP has a [[construction permit]] to [[flash-cut]] its signal to [[digital TV]] on channel 6 at 300 [[watt]]s (formerly to channel 42 at 11 [[kilowatt|kW]]). By doing so, its purpose as a radio station would be defeated.
