Mormon Channel is an over the air and Internet radio station owned and operated by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). It is based in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Broadcasting 24/7 from facilities at the LDS Church's headquarters, Mormon Channel broadcasts over the Internet via the station website at http://mormonchannel.org and over the HD2 and HD3 channels of seven FM stations: KIRO-FM in Seattle, KSWD in Los Angeles, KSL-FM in Salt Lake City, KTAR-FM in Phoenix, WARH in St. Louis, WSHE-FM in Chicago, and WYGY in Cincinnati. KIRO, KSWD, KSL, and KTAR are owned by Bonneville International, itself owned by the LDS Church; WARH, WSHE-FM, and WYGY are owned by Hubbard Broadcasting, but were owned by Bonneville as well until 2011.
The Mormon Channel was officially launched on May 18, 2009. As of 2015, it is also available via iPhone and Android apps and on YouTube. The apps include video and audio content and four radio feeds, while the YouTube channel features primarily video content (the audio-only programming has not been included on YouTube). All the audio streams are also available via alternate means, such as TuneIn or mp3 feeds.
