KYCW-LD's low-powered broadcasting radius does not reach the entire market. Therefore, it is simulcast in 16:9 widescreen standard definition on KYTV's third digital subchannel (UHF channel 44.5 or virtual channel 33.2 via PSIP), and in high definition on KSPR-LD's second digital subchannel (UHF channel 15.4, also mapped to virtual channel 24.1 via PSIP); it is also simulcast to Branson on K17DL's digital subchannel (UHF channel 17.4 or virtual channel 24.2 via PSIP).
