KZNO-LP is a low-power television station in Big Bear Lake, California, USA, broadcasting locally on analog channel 6 as an independent station. Founded on August 7, 1996, the station is owned by Bear Valley Broadcasting, Inc. It is also available to area subscribers of Charter Cable on channel 6. The station's programming is similar to a public-access television cable TV channel, consisting primarily of news, public affairs and travel programs produced by local residents of the Big Bear Valley.
Since KZNO-LP is a low-power station, it was not required to switch to a digital signal on June 12, 2009, as required of all full-power TV stations in the United States. No date or timeline has yet been determined by the Federal Communications Commission for low-power stations and translators to switch from analog to digital. The station's audio feed can be heard on local radio at 87.7 FM since analog channel 6 is in the 82-88 MHz range.
