KUTF (channel 12) is a religious television station licensed to Logan, Utah, United States, serving the Salt Lake City area as an owned-and-operated station of the Daystar Television Network. The station's transmitter is located on Cal Mountain near Tremonton, Utah.
History
The channel 12 frequency in Logan previously belonged to KUSU-TV, a non-commercial educational station owned and operated by Utah State University which broadcast from 1964 to 1970. The KUTF calls were used previously from 1989 until 1992 for what is now KRCW-TV in Salem, Oregon, which serves the Portland market.
KUTF was founded June 9, 2000, by Equity Media Holdings and launched on January 1, 2001, as a Univision affiliate, then shifted to Univision's secondary network, TeleFutura (the current-day UniMás) in 2005. At one point, it was simulcast in Salt Lake City via low-power station K45GX in Salt Lake City. Equity co-managed the station with Provo-licensed KCBU (now KUTH-DT, channel 32), which was owned by Univision itself but operated by Equity.
