You are correct though.

it is also that, we have KCMO 710 AM radio station, and KCMO is Kansas City Missouri as opposed to KCK , which is Kansas City Kansas

it is the result of building a large city on a state line

i dunno, here is something about KCMO

Legend has it that the new owners held a meeting at which one of the subjects was a name for their new township. After rejecting such ideas as Port Fonda, Rabbitville and Possum Trot, they decided to name it the Town of Kansas, after the Kansa Indians who inhabited the area.

The town retained that name when it was incorporated and granted a charter by Jackson County June 1, 1850. (When it was incorporated by the state Feb. 22, 1853, it became the City of Kansas, and in 1889, it officially became known as Kansas City.)

this is about KCK

1703 First recorded visit of a European -- Charles LeSeuer, member of a French mining expedition
1795 Morgan Boone is the first English speaking white man to visit area
1803 Louisiana Territory (including Kansas) purchased by United States from France
1804 June 26 -- Lewis & Clark expedition camps on Kaw Point on way west to explore Louisiana Territory
1820 Establishment of "Four Houses", Chouteau Brothers trading post
1825 United States Government pays Kansas Indians for lands they claim as hunting grounds, including Kansas City area
1826 "Caleece" Ferry, first gateway to the Kansas Territory, begins operation
1829 Government gives land (now Wyandotte and Leavenworth Counties) to Delaware Indians, relocating them from Ohio
1831 Moses Grinter, first permanent white settler, commissioned by United States Government to operate a ferry across the Kansas River
1832 Methodist Mission to Delawares established at White Church
1843 Wyandot Indians migrate from Ohio to Kansas; December 14 - purchase 25,000 acres from Delawares in what is now Wyandotte County for $48,000
1854 Kansas becomes a territory
1856 Wyandotte City Town Company organized
1857 Quindaro established as a Free State port
1859 City of Wyandotte incorporated; population: 1,259
so, i dunno
