==History==
The station started out as a [[Spanish language in the United States|Spanish]] [[Independent station (North America)|independent]] in 1997 as '''K62CY''' on channel 62. Shortly, the station was moved to channel 31 as '''K31FA'''. This signal was overlapping KUVN-LP (before it moved to channel 47) reception, so in 2001, the station moved its broadcasts to channel 57 as '''K57IG''' where it picked up the [[MTV Tres|Mas Musica]] affiliate passed over from [[K25FW-D|K25FW]] and [[KLEG-CD|KLEG-LP]]. After 2 years, the station dropped Mas Musica and changed its format to [[Infomercial|paid programming]] as '''KSEX-LP'''. In 2009 the station went silent.

On January 5, 2011, KSEX swapped callsigns with San Diego TV station [[KSEX-CD|KBOP]] and resumed broadcasting on channel 20 nine days later with a sub-channel mixture of religious programming and infomercials.
