KVPX-LD, virtual and UHF digital channel 28, is a low-powered Sonlife-affiliated television station licensed to Las Vegas, Nevada, United States. The station is owned by HC2 Holdings. The station's transmitter is located in Henderson.

In June 2013, KVPX-LD was slated to be sold to Landover 5 as part of a larger deal involving 51 other low-power television stations;[1] the sale fell through in June 2016.[2]

During the 2015 Consumer Electronic Show in Las Vegas, it was reported that KVPX was used for demonstrating the new ATSC 3.0 technique in 4K-UHD.

Mako Communications sold its stations, including KVPX-LD, to HC2 Holdings in 2017.[3]
