History
The station went on the air in 1988[1] as KVHF, and changed its call letters to KLEI on March 9, 1992.[8] The station was at one point affiliated with Ion Television and its predecessors, i and Pax TV,[1] and later with The Family Channel (U.S. TV network).[9]
On October 19, 2012, KLEI was granted statewide "Must Carry" status on the Oceanic Time Warner Cable and Hawaiian Telcom cable services, provided it delivers a good quality signal to the cable television headends.[10]
In late 2017, KLEI became Hawaii's first over-the-air affiliate of Spanish language network Telemundo, filling a void in the market for a Spanish language station that opened up when KHLU-CD (a Univision affiliate) ceased operations in 2016. Shortly after assuming the Telemundo affiliation, KLEI became available on cable on the eastern side of the Big Island for the first time.
