The deal reunited the radio and TV stations, which became KLOE and KLOE-TV. The combination of the two stations was known very briefly as the High Plains Network, though by the fall, KAYS-TV, KLOE-TV, and KTVC all formed part of the Kansas Broadcasting System, originating at KTVH in Hutchinson.
The merger of the radio and TV stations led to the creation of KLOE and KLOE-TV, which were later combined into a single entity known as the High Plains Network. This network eventually evolved into the Kansas Broadcasting System, with KAYS-TV, KLOE-TV, and KTVC all becoming part of it.
