KZJL (channel 61) is a television station in Houston, Texas, United States, broadcasting the Spanish-language network Estrella TV. It is owned by MediaCo and is sister to four radio stations. KZJL's studios are located on Bering Drive on the city's southwest side, and its transmitter is located near Missouri City, in unincorporated northeastern Fort Bend County.
The station first signed on the air on June 3, 1995, as an affiliate of home shopping network Shop at Home.[3] In 2001, the station was purchased by Liberman Broadcasting (which was renamed Estrella Media on February 3, 2020, following a corporate reorganization of the company under private equity firm HPS Investment Partners, LLC) and became a Spanish-languageindependent station; on September 14, 2009, KZJL became a charter owned-and-operated station of Liberman's Spanish-language broadcast network Estrella TV. Estrella Media was in turn absorbed into MediaCo on November 10, 2025.
The station's signal is multiplexed:
KZJL ended regular programming on its analog signal, over UHF channel 61, on June 12, 2009, as part of federally mandated transition from analog to digital television.[4] The station's digital signal remained on its pre-transition UHF channel 44, using virtual channel 61.
