KUTH is a full-service television station in Provo, Utah, and serves as the Univision station for the Salt Lake City, Utah market. It broadcasts in analog on UHF channel 32, with no separate DTV allocation. The station is network-owned, but is operated by Equity Broadcasting, with all programming and master control originating via satellite from Equity's headquarters in Little Rock, Arkansas.

At one point, KUTH aired local newscasts; they were produced out of Little Rock, with reports produced in Salt Lake City. The newscasts were canceled in June 2008, after Equity instituted a companywide suspension of news programs.cite news |first=Toby |last=Manthey |title=Equity ends newscasts; N.Y. station buy teeters |url=http://www.nwanews.com/adg/Business/228628/ |work=Arkansas Democrat-Gazette |date=2008-06-14 |accessdate=2008-06-19 ]

Digital television

Because it was granted an original construction permit after the FCC finalized the DTV allotment plan on April 21, 1997 [http://www.transmitter.com/FCC97115/chanplan.html] , 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, KUTH will be required to turn off its analog signal and turn on its digital signal (called a "flash-cut").
