How to Watch KSHB (NBC Channel 41) Without Cable

Whether you want to watch the Kansas City Chiefs or you just want to get your daily local news, NBC’s KSHB (Channel 41) has proven to be reliable over the years. It has exclusive rights to Chiefs games and has beloved anchors on the news.

Not so reliable, however, is the channel’s signal. It’s not uncommon to hear reports of people having to replace cables and antennas just to get the channel, and even then it doesn’t get as clear as it should be.

The good news is you don’t actually need cable to watch KSHB.

You can watch NBC KSHB- Kansas City, MO without cable on DirecTV Stream, or Fubo.

Named the "best all-around streaming service for cord-cutters" by Rolling Stone, DirecTV Stream tries to be all the good things about cable without any of the hassle.
