Sunflower Broadband and KMBC reached an agreement Friday allowing Sunflower to once again carry KMBC channel 9 and KCWE channel 17 on its lineup.
Rod Kutemeier, general manager of Sunflower Broadband, said the agreement was a result of a week of negotiations between the two companies. The agreement was reached Friday afternoon and Sunflower Broadband began broadcasting the channels at 4:30 p.m. that day, Kutemeier said.
“We are very pleased that these two stations are back on our lineup and we’re once again allowed to transmit the signals,” Kutemeier said.
KMBC pulled the stations from Sunflower Broadband Jan. 1, after failing to reach a retransmission agreement.
“We appreciate everybody’s patience and understanding with this process,” Kutemeier said. “We certainly hope we don’t have to repeat this ever again.”

KMBC, KCWE back on Sunflower Broadband
YES! Now I can actually watch Supernatural when it airs rather than having to wait for a site to upload it the next day.
