KUTF is a Spanish-language television station in Logan, Utah, broadcasting locally on channel 12 as an affiliate of TeleFutura. Founded June 9, 2000, the station is owned by Equity Broadcasting along with sister-station KCBU. KUTF is also simulcast on K45GX in Salt Lake City.
The channel 12 frequency in Logan previously belonged to KUSU-TV, an educational station owned and operated by Utah State University, which broadcast during the 1960s[1], while the call letters KUTF originally belonged to the CW affiliate in Portland/Salem, Oregon, KRCW-TV.
[edit] Digital television
Because it was granted an original construction permit after the FCC finalized the DTV allotment plan on April 21, 1997 [2], the station did not receive a companion channel for a digital television station. Instead, on or before February 17, 2009, which is the end of the digital TV conversion period for full-service stations, KUTF will be required to turn off its analog signal and turn on its digital signal (called a "flash-cut").
