KVIQ-LD (channel 14) is a low-power television station in Eureka, California, United States, affiliated with CBS. It is owned by Marquee Broadcasting alongside NBC affiliate KIEM-TV (channel 3). The two stations share studios on South Broadway in Spruce Point near the southwestern corner of Eureka; KVIQ-LD's transmitter is located along Barry Road southeast of the city.

Until 2017, KVIQ operated as a full-power television station on digital channel 17. The full-power signal was sold to comply with FCC regulations, after former owner Northwest Broadcasting acquired another full-power signal, KIEM.[1] Upon the completion of the sale, Northwest transferred the station's intellectual unit into a low-power facility.[2]

History

Carroll R. Hauser obtained a construction permit to build a television station on channel 13 in Eureka on January 17, 1957.[3]
