KEUV-LD (channel 35) is a low-power television station in Eureka, California, United States, affiliated with the Spanish-language network Univision. It is owned by Sinclair Broadcast Group alongside ABC/Fox affiliate KAEF-TV (channel 23), KBVU (channel 28), and CW+/MyNetworkTV affiliate KECA-LD (channel 29). The four stations share studios on Sixth Street in downtown Eureka; KEUV-LD's transmitter is located along Barry Road southeast of Eureka.

Although identifying as a separate station in its own right, KEUV-LD is considered a semi-satellite of KUCO-LD (channel 27) in Chico. It simulcasts all Univision network programming as provided by its parent but airs different commercials and station identifications. Master control operations are based at the facilities of sister station and ABC affiliate KRCR-TV (channel 7) on Auditorium Drive in Redding.

History

KEUV was founded in 1994 by Sainte Partners II, L.P. It is the first and only Spanish-language television station in Eureka.

On April 21, 2017, Sinclair Broadcast Group purchased KBVU as part of a four-station deal.[2] The sale was completed September 1.[3]

In spring of 2020, KEUV-LP turned off its analog signal and flash cut to digital on channel 31. The station was licensed for digital operation on April 5, 2021, changing its call sign to KEUV-LD.
