Calling All Kansas City Chiefs Fans: Ditch Cable (and Your Sanity), Watch CBS on Antenna for Free!
Tired of the monthly cable bill that mysteriously keeps going up even though the only channel you watch is CBS (because, duh, Chiefs games)? Well, fret no more, my friend, because you've stumbled upon the golden ticket - cutting the cord and receiving CBS with an antenna! That's right, folks, ditch the overpriced cable packages and grainy satellite dishes. We're talking free, crystal-clear CBS, all thanks to the marvel of modern technology... and some wires.
But First, Why Go Through All This Antenna Jazz?
Because, my friend, freedom! Freedom from outrageous cable bills! Freedom from pixelated pictures during the most important Patrick Mahomes pass! Freedom to finally put your foot down and tell the cable company what you really think of their hidden fees (it probably won't understand, but it'll be cathartic).
Alright, Alright, You've Convinced Me. So, What Channel is CBS on Antenna in Kansas City?
Drumroll please... CBS in Kansas City is on channel 5.1 with an antenna! Shocking, right? It's almost like the channel number logically corresponds to the physical channel location.
But wait, there's more! Just in case you're feeling fancy and want to explore the wonders of subchannels (because who doesn't love a good infomercial at 2 am?), here's the full breakdown:
- KCTV 5.1: Your one-stop shop for all things CBS, including those glorious Chiefs games.
- KCTV 5.2: 365 Net - Perfect for when you need a good dose of heartwarming courtroom shows in between games.
- KCTV 5.3: Start TV - Because sometimes, you just want to reminisce about the golden age of television (or maybe you missed an episode of Baywatch back in the day).
Sounds Easy Enough. But Is This Some Sort of Sorcery?
Not at all! Setting up an antenna is easier than explaining offside rules to your uncle at Thanksgiving dinner. There are plenty of resources online to guide you through the process, but let's just say it involves a few wires, maybe a drill (if you're feeling adventurous), and voila - free CBS!
