I am excited for this channel! I feel like this was Boomerang in it's earlier days.

I just hope that it comes to one of the full power TV stations in the Kansas City area, likely on either KMBC or KCWE.

KMBC currently has Nosey on Ch. 9.4, which seems like it may be a temporary placeholder & KCWE has an empty channel on Ch. 29.3 (Was supposed to be carrying Twist, but for some reason the subchannel had technical problems & Twist ended up ceasing operations anyway in early 2024.) & HSN on Ch. 29.4 (Also has it's own technical problems resulting in the subchannel having a frozen image & no audio for over almost a month!).

My guess is that MeTV Toons will likely land on one of those subchannels in the Kansas City area.

It was just a guess, also I forgot to check the list of Nosey affiliates on the Rabbit Ears website before I made that post.

Here's the full MeTV Toons schedule:

It will be on KGKC 39.7

It will be on KGKC 39.7

Unfortunately, that TV station is low power & I can't get it to come in where I am at (Carrollton, MO - See attachment.) unless the atmospheric conditions are REALLY good.

Still hoping that KMBC, or KCWE will eventually pick it up.

If not, I'll have to subscribe to FrndlyTV to be able to watch it.

On June 18, 2024, the new MeTV O&O, WMEI 31, launches in Green Bay, Wisconsin with MeTV on 31.1 and Story TV on 31.3. I'm guessing some sort of placeholder, like a test pattern or color bars, will air on 31.2 until MeTV Toons launches on June 25...

At least in the DC area we have a short loop.thatvis effectively a promo for the channel.

I wonder if they'll put this up on 101w satellite, with the rest of their feeds.

 

[N5XZS]

Wish they would put it in Ku band side on 101W* but that's wishful thinking, but you never know though!
