KBSL channel 10 is a CBS affiliate based in Goodland, Kansas and serves the northwestern Kansas / southwestern Nebraska portion of the Wichita TV market (including Colby). It can also be seen in part of east-central Colorado. It is owned by Schurz Communications.
KBSL is part of the Kansas Broadcasting System (KBS) network of CBS affiliates, repeating the signal of KWCH-TV in Wichita, Kansas, with local advertising and news inserts.
KBSL's transmitter is located near Goodland, in the Mountain Time Zone. Prime-time in the "Mountain" part of KBSL's viewing area runs from 6PM to 9PM Mountain Time, as opposed to 7PM to 10PM Central. However, since it is a translator station in the Wichita market, the schedule remains on Central time.
On April 6, 2006, previous owner Media General announced that, in addition to acquiring four NBC owned-and-operated stations, Media General will be selling four of its TV stations. KWCH (including its satellites, which all count as one station) was one of them [1]; a deal has been made for them to be sold to Schurz, who completed the acquisition on September 25, 2006. [2] [3]
