KALO, virtual channel 38 (UHF digital channel 18), is a non-commercial, independent religious television station licensed to Honolulu, Hawaii, United States. The station is owned by KALO TV, Inc. KALO's studios are located on Waiakamilo Road in Honolulu, and its transmitter is located in Akupu, Hawaii. On cable, the station is available on Oceanic Spectrum channel 25 throughout most of the state, with the exception of the island of Hawai'i (the "Big Island"), where it is carried on channel 29.[1]

KALO, which signed on the air July 9, 1999, is one of six stations in Honolulu that air religious programming, the other five being KWHE, KAAH-TV, KWBN, KKAI and KUPU. KALO's allocation channel, like that of KWBN and PBS outlet KHET, is reserved for non-commercial educational use, and as such, the station depends on viewer donations for support.
