KNLA-LP is a low-power television station in Los Angeles, California, owned by the Venture Technologies Group. Transmitting from the Mt. Harvard Radio Site in the San Gabriel mountains. Its city of license is Los Angeles, California. It is a Spanish Independent station. The low power station originally broadcast on channel 68, but moved to channel 27 to make room for KRCA-DT in Riverside, which operates on digital channel 68.

The station is geared toward the community of Los Angeles area residents of Central American heritage. Most of these immigrants moved from El Salvador and Guatemala. In the mornings, this channel broadcasts half-hour religious programs under the name of ZionTV from 6:00 am to 2:00 p.m. Monday-Friday. It then airs independent Spanish-language programs and infomercials for the rest of the day. Currently KNLA is operating as a translator for KBBC-TV, channel 20, a full power TV station in Bishop California. As KBBC is now available as part of the Los Angeles local TV package from DirecTV, effectively, KNLA's programming schedule can also be seen.

KNLA-LP produces and airs its own live, local newscast which airs at 7 p.m. weeknights.
