KUVS-DT, virtual channel 19 (UHF digital channel 18), is a Univision owned-and-operated television station serving Sacramento, California, United States that is licensed to Modesto. The station is owned by Univision Communications, as part of a duopoly with UniMás owned-and-operated station KTFK-DT (channel 64). The two stations share studio facilities located at 1710 Arden Way in Sacramento; KUVS' transmitter is located near Valley Springs. It is repeated on translator station KEZT-CD in Sacramento.
The station first signed on the air on August 15, 1966 as KLOC-TV, operating as an independent station. It was founded by country and western performer Chester Smith, who also owned KLOC radio (920 AM, now KVIN) in Ceres. His company, Sainte Partners II, L.P. previously owned KCSO-LP (channel 33) locally, and also owned stations in the Chico/Redding, Eureka, Salinas/Monterey/Santa Cruz and Medford, Oregon markets.
