After more than a month of negotiations, WTHR-13 has returned to the channel lineup for DirecTV and AT&T U-verse subscribers.

"WTHR is back on your system!" the station announced on its website Friday night. "After reaching a fair agreement with DirecTV and AT&T U-verse, all of your favorite programs have returned to your channel lineup."

A spokeswoman for AT&T confirmed the agreement would restore service to the local NBC affiliate "effective immediately."

Service for those subscribers had been interrupted since September, as negotiations between the station's parent company, Dispatch Broadcast Group and AT&T, dragged on.

This isn't the first time negotiations between the station and a cable provider interrupted service. In 2014, contract negotiations between DirecTV and WTHR led to a blackout.

The talks also involved Columbus, Ohio, CBS-affiliate WBNS, also owned by Dispatch.
