KSLD-TV Channel 62, the first new TV station in the Los Angeles market in years, went on the air Monday night with programming supplied by Home Shopping Network, instead of Spanish-language programming as originally announced. Station president Jack Hodin said he made the change after he was unable to secure enough Spanish programs. “The group I had a prospective contract with was simply not prepared to get started,” Hodin said. KSLD will broadcast from 9 p.m.-6 a.m. until April 3, when it will increase to 24 hours daily. Hodin said his station’s Home Shopping programming is “differently packaged and presented” than that carried on Channel 46.
