KHLO (850 AM) is a radio station licensed to Hilo, Hawaii, United States. The station serves the Hilo area. The station is currently owned by First Assembly King's Cathedral and Chapels.[1]
In 2017, KHLO went silent rather than repoint the satellite dish that received its programming from satellite AMC-8, which was taken out of service at midnight on June 30, 2017.[2] AMC-8 has been replaced by AMC-18, which is at a different location in the sky, requiring repointing the station's dish.[3] It was donated to First Assembly King's Cathedral and Chapels in 2019 and resumed operations on August 8, 2019.[4]
