The three stations share studios on Hillcrest Avenue in downtown Grand Junction, while KFQX's transmitter is located at the Black Ridge Electronics Site at the Colorado National Monument west of the city.
KREX obtained the rights to provide Fox programming in Grand Junction in 1994 and began airing the network on a low-power station.
The station airs Grand Junction newscasts from KREX at 6:30 and 9 p.m.[2] and morning and late evening news from Nexstar-owned KDVR in Denver.
KREX first began providing Fox to the Grand Junction area on September 1, 1994, when Withers Broadcasting activated low-power station K27CO.
However, Gray and Excalibur opted to put the Grand Junction stations on the market, with the companies already running KKCO and KJCT.
[13] The sale of KREX was completed on June 13, 2014; Nexstar began providing services to KFQX while it awaited FCC approval.
