KRCA, virtual channel 62 (UHF digital channel 35), is an Estrella TV owned-and-operated television station serving Los Angeles, California, United States that is licensed to Riverside. It is the flagship television station of owner Liberman Broadcasting. The station's studios are located on North Victory Drive (near Interstate 5) in Burbank, and its transmitter is located atop Mount Harvard.
The station first signed on the air on December 17, 1988 as KSLD-TV, displacing a low-power translator of San Bernardino-based PBS member station KVCR-TV (channel 24). The station ran a mix of Asian-language programs (in Mandarin Chinese and Korean). Channel 62 was founded and owned by Frank L. Fouce's company, Fouce Amusement Enterprises, who broadcast Asian-language programming.
In 1990, the station changed its call letters to KRCA (the station is not related to NBC owned-and-operated station KNBC channel 4, or RCA, the former parent of that station's associated network, although NBC used the KRCA call letters on its Los Angeles station in the 1950s), and became an affiliate of the Home Shopping Network. In 1998, KRCA was sold to Liberman Broadcasting, and converted into a Spanish-language independent station.
