KOKP

Not to be confused with real-life KUOK in Oklahoma City KUOK-CA is an UPN affiliate serving Oklahoma City, OK, and it's surrounding areas. Broadcasting on channel 11, KUOK-CA is owned and operated by Flinn Broadcasting. The station first signed on the air in 1997 as KDSA-LP, carrying programming from The Worship Network. KUOK-CA was then affiliated in 2003 to Univision. In the summer of 2004, the station requested to the Federal Communications Commission to have its call letters changed to KUOK-CA, which was made official that fall. The first owners of the station was Equity Broadcasting. In 2005, the station changed affiliation and join LAT-TV. In 2006, Equity was in financial trouble and they needed someone to either buy the station or they would have no choice but to shut the station down. Suddenly, George Flinn, owner of Flinn Broadcasting, announced that the company would purchase the station. A month after they purchased the station, they caught win that KUPK, then an UPN affiliate, announced that they would leave UPN and join MyNetworkTV, and thus change their call letters to KMYK. KUOK-CA jumped at the opportunity and announced that they would be the new home of UPN. So on Oct. 3, 2006, KUOK ditched the LAT-TV affiliation and joined UPN. In 2010, News 11 was launched.
