KGJT-LP, channel 27, is the low-powered MyNetworkTV affiliate for Grand Junction and the rest of western Colorado. KGJT is owned by Hoak Media Corporation, which also owns CBS affiliate KREX-TV.
Hoak Media also operates the Parker Broadcasting owned FOX affiliate KFQX via a LMA. Although the station does not have a digital signal of its own, KGJT can also be seen on KREX's DT2 digital subchannel. This practice began when KGJT changed network affiliations fron UPN to MyNetworkTV on September 5, 2006. KGJT does not have a website of its own, but a programming grid for the channel can be seen on KREX's website.
