[edit] History

The station was founded as K55EB on April 3, 1985 with a grant of an original construction permit to J-Pax Broadcasters, Inc. to build a low-power television station on UHF channel 55 to serve Spokane. Almost immediately, J-Pax entered into an agreement to sell the permit to International Broadcast Consultants, Inc.; the sale was consummated December 10, 1985. International Broadcast Consultants completed construction of the station, which came on the air in September or October 1987 and was licensed November 18, 1987. Trinity Broadcasting Network acquired the station from International Broadcast Consultants on July 27, 1989, and it has been a TBN owned-and-operated station since.

On January 16, 2007, needing to abandon its 700-MHz frequency, the station moved to UHF channel 32 and was assigned callsign K32GS.
