1. The program at 7 AM on Channel 62 is M.A.S.K., not The Mask (the spinoff of the Jim Carrey
movie that came along years later).
Some comments about KQTV the 2nd (more on the 1st here:
http://www.uhftelevision.com/articles.html
St. Joseph's channel 2 has an odd existence being in the shadow of KC. Started out CBS as KFEQ-
TV in 1953, switched to ABC in 1967, took on the KQTV calls in 1969 when KFEQ 680 and KFEQ-
TV were sold to different owners.
Why didn't KQTV become the NBC affiliate for KC in the late 80s after WDAF defected to FOX?
Probably the same reason that KQTV didn't ever move into the KC market: Kansas City
International Airport. No big towers were possible anywhere near there, I suspect. And, by the
80s, I wonder if a channel 2 signal with all of its difficulties being viewed with rabbit ear sets
might have been at a disadvantage to UHF signals.
KQTV did try to move into the Topeka market in the early 80s with a proposed 2000 foot tower
about 25 miles SW near Atchinson KS. Problem was that it created a white area on the NE side of
the existing KQTV service area of about 10,000 people, while the service gains to Topeka and
other areas in Kansas didn't result in a second or third TV service. All the networks were already
there, so KQTV's proposal was denied. Had KQTV made their move in the 60s before all the UHFs
in Topeka came about, the outcome might have been different.

A few things:
- TV Guide was in error when claiming that WOR's sign-on newscast was in B&W; I vividly
remember seeing their slides-only news in color. From what I recall, Russ Dunbar was doing the
sign-on news on weekdays in those days, and Phil Tonken did such newscasts at least on
Saturdays.
- There was an irony to WOR running the by-then public TV Firing Line at this point, as it was at
Channel 9 that the show was first launched in 1966, and there it remained until host William F.
Buckley moved it to public TV (and its studio base elsewhere) in 1971.
- This was from a time when their Fright Night was temporarily off the air.

In which case, either Channel 8 or TVG bunged the listing up...given that TVG claimed WOR's
news aired in B&W, could very well be the latter
less than a year later Estaban Dejesus would get His ass kicked by Roberto Duran and lose the

Yes. For many years, all the major NYC stations had supplemental UHF translators to deal with
multi-path issues in mid-town Manhattan. I believe I recall reading that after 9/11, WPIX
reactivated theirs (or at least received permission to do so) for a brief time during those early
post-attack days when the WTC stations were all improvising any way possible to restore OTA
service to at least some of their coverage area.
Which leads to this question: When did the W60AI translator channel (Channel 60) come into
effect for Channel 68?
Wikipedia claims 1977 as s/on date (maybe later in the year after this schedule was published).
FCC file on them seems to only go back to 1980 or so.
So it was maybe later in 1977 that W60AI first kicked in. The translator was already in place
("with a circular polarized antenna located atop 2 World Trade Center, New York City") by the
time and/or shortly after Channel 68's calls were changed to WTVG, per this sign-on:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RzM9iyaPd9U
And later on, after 68's call-letter change to WWHT in 1979, was on this clip (at 2:18 - 3:14):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gjy1jlz3kKk
- There was an irony to WOR running the by-then public TV Firing Line at this point, as it was at
Channel 9 that the show was first launched in 1966, and there it remained until host William F.
Buckley moved it to public TV (and its studio base elsewhere) in 1971.
If this is of help . . . there were two episodes dealing with gun control. One was taped in 1980.
The one aired here was probably rerun from PBS, but was a relatively new episode, having been
taped on Jan. 10, 1977. The guests are on the page linked below:
http://hoohila.stanford.edu/firingli...?programID=722
In short, this was within the "first-run" group and not reruns of his 1966-71 shows.
That was my take, wbhist, though I'm not sure if I ever saw an episode of this program on WOR
myself (PBS/WNET is a totally different matter).
Thanks!
Did TVG did run ads of WWWF action on ch.9 to get people to watch at midnight.
It would not have been TV Guide's decision. The ad would have to be purchased by either WOR-
TV or by the program producers. Given that WOR-TV would have still been owned by RKO
General in 1977, I think the odds were heavily against such an ad appearing, as RKO tended to
run ads only for airings of movies.

Actually YOU BOTH are sort of right. I was from Northern NJ and we got the NYC edition of TV
Guide in our area even though we could not get Hartford stations. Some stores also offered the
Philadelphia Edition B which had Philadelphia and NYC VHF stations. There was also an edition
offered near Philadelphia that only had Philadelphia stations. The two editions eventually
merged. Anyhow the NYC edition had tons of NYC minority watched and secondary PBS stations
included along with our well known 7 VHF stations 2, 4, 5, 7, 9, 11, and 13. In our area with
Cable we only got the major NYC VHF stations and Philadelphia major players back then. WIth a
good roof antenna MAYBE you could get NYC UHF stations but few if any bothered trying.
Anyhow did have people I know that lived an hour out of Hartford.
I did notice that the TV Guide listed Little Rascals as a cartoon but this was a mistake on the TV
Guide's part. WTNH actually only showed that theatrical Littlke Rascals films from KIng World
made by Hal Roach studios from 1929-38 from Interstate TV prints and later King WOrld White
prints. I do not believe a carton rascals show was even made till the early 80's plus their 30
second 1979 PSA's that were animated. So Channel 8 did carry the theatricals not a
cartoon....Also they did not carry the MGM ones from 38-44 from what I can gather.

"Bulletproof." [1988] When a top-secret tank falls into the hands of terrorists, there's only one
person to call: Frank McBain (Gary Busey). His nickname is "Bulletproof," due to his uncanny
ability to survive gunshot wounds that would have been fatal for anyone else. McBain will need
whatever luck he can muster as he journeys to the Mexican border to recover the super-tank,
put legions of well-armed opponents into the ground and rescue his ex-girlfriend, Devon
(Darlanne Fluegel).

Having grown up in this area, this listing brings back a lot of memories. Especially the Mr. Moto
movie (though I remember them mostly on Saturday afternoons). They were part of a package
with Charlie Chan and Basil Rathborne-era Sherlock Holmes. Anyone else see these movies in
their areas? Some other thoughts...
--A lot of programs that I'd assume were already in mothballs, from "This Is The Life" to "Police
Story".
--I'm not sure which is odder, that the forgettable "Matt Houston" was syndicated or that they
aired it at 9:30am Sunday.
--Lawrence Welk already in PBS reruns? When did the public TV reruns start?
You grew up in Yakima, or Tri-Cities? I get all of my microfilm copies at the Downtown Yakima
Library. They have Yakima Herald going back to about 1895 or so, up to September 2014. Yes,
you would think 2014 would all be archived ONLINE...but there's still film copies.
I notice that some of the later 1990s YH-R's do not have any of the Sunday TV inserts on the film.
Proof? I looked at the microfilm reel from January 1997. No Sunday inserts at all.
I went there today and got two more microfilm listings, 1983 and 1992. The 1983 listing has
cable lineups for all of the Yakima Valley cable systems - McCaw and Cox. Little would you know,
30+ years later it's ALL Charter!

I grew up in a small town 20 miles south of Yakima, so we only got the Yakima stations. I've
occasionally looked up the microfilm too, and noticed the TV inserts only started around 1970
(before then they'd just print the week's listings in the main section of the paper). There's a good
reason why; Yakima didn't get a third commercial station until that year.
Ah, either Toppenish or Zillah! I have relatives in Wapato, and we visit Legends Casino about

In my area in 1998, the cable system had none of the Western Washington stations except KSTW.
(I know for sure they all were on Ellensburg's cable). We also didn't have CHEK; we did have the
CBC, but it wasn't CBUT--it was CBC North, the Yukon/NWT feed of the network. On the plus side
we had WWOR while Yakima didn't.

Odd! I thought CBUT-2 Vancouver was the default station in WA - the CBUT feed is still carried on
most Western WA cable systems. CBC North is a bit of a surprise. Was there any way to tell?
Different test pattern after signing off I suppose? Were you also able to get the local CBC News
broadcast from CBC North (NWT/YT) and the broadcast in the Inuktitat language?
I suspect you had WWOR EMI (post SyndEx) which was kind of a like a "WGN America" - mostly
different programming from NYC WWOR, and no UPN simulcast unlike WGN in WB's first few
years. Sometimes the Lower Valley cable got other channels than Yakima itself. A LONG time ago,
Nickelodeon was carried in Selah on ch 2, but not at all in Yakima (this was during the Livewire,
Pinwheel, You Can't Do That on Television days of the 80s).

Oh it was instantly obvious it was CBC North: all weather was from the Arctic region,
announcements and the little news I did see were in some Inuit language, plus the station was
on Mountain Time. As far as WWOR, I always assumed it was the NYC feed; all the commercials
were NYC-based (I finally got all the jokes about Crazy Eddie and Carvel from "SNL"), and Mets
games were on and not blacked out. I moved from the area in 1992, so maybe the EMI feed took
over after then.
WWOR EMI Service went on the air around 1990 after SyndEx went into effect. Commercials
were mostly national direct-response, PSAs or WWOR EMI promos I believe. They blotted out
UPN even though WGN Superstation carried the first few years of The WB.
I should check the weekday listings next week at the downtown library, and find "CBC". Yakima
Herald did weekday daytime in a separate area, for M-F. Each evening/overnight had its own
listing. CBC North has "Igalaaq", an Inuktitut news broadcast weekdays, and a Cree language
newsmagazine aired each week called "Maamuitaau". CBC North was on the Anik satellites, in
the clear, for YEARS, until around 2000. I'm sure Danderson used that feed for Hockey Night in
Canada broadcasts each Saturday night in season.
After looking at more microfilm today (and I have more listings, 1989 1991 1993 1995 to post) I
saw only "News" listed for CBC at 6PM and 11PM. No Inuit language programming was listed. It
may have been the "Northbeat" program in English. Inuit news may have been included in the
broadcast but it was definitely not listed in the YHR listings.
installLSC: As of late 1986, the only cable system to have CBC North was McCaw Cable in Mid-
Valley (Wapato, Toppenish, Zillah area) on channel 6. WWOR was also carried on channel 3, and
not carried in Yakima or Ellensburg. The SAME system also offered Discovery Channel in the very
early days on channel 19 - the only system at the time to carry it.
There was also a 12-channel system called "Chinook Cable" listed. Was that a cable provider for
the Nile/Cliffdell area? They carried KCPQ 13 when no other provider had it.

Ding Dong School did run on NBC up until the end of 1956. It's a good bet it was syndicated. Not
surprised about a 90-minute block of Popeye cartoons...KCOP in Los Angeles had a 90-minute
block of Felix the Cat cartoons (mixed in with other cartoons--not sure which since it's been over
50 years since I saw it).

A few fading recollections from an old geezer that was close to his 6th birthday on the date
indicated. I lived in Bloomington IN at the time.
Channel 4
Ruffles' Party was a local kids show, sponsored by Chesty potato chips, who owned the Ruffles
brand name at the time. Ruffles the Clown was similar to Bozo in that each market had its own
Ruffles, but it was strictly a midwestern and southern franchise, IIRC, not national.
Somewhere on the schedule, WTTV sportscaster Chuck Marlowe was involved in a kids show at
the time. Could that have been Chatter 'n Bugs? I really don't remember that show.
The Popeye show, IIRC, was an hour, not 90 minutes. In 1961 it starred Happy Herb (Herb Isaacs),
and if you sent your picture in to the station, he'd put it on his wall. I forget what came on at
5:30, but I was probably eating dinner then anyway.
The WTTV-produced kids shows also aired on then-sister station WFAM-TV 18 Lafayette and,
beginning in 1962, flea-powered independent WTAF-TV 31 in Marion, which was not owned by
Sarkes Tarzian.
Ding Dong School was a rerun from the 1950s. In my house, we were required to watch it,
because my grandmother was a kindergarten teacher in Gary, and knew Frances Horwich
professionally.
Indiana University programs were among the few shows still being produced in Bloomington.
The station had moved most of its operations to Indy in the mid '50s, while it was still an NBC
affiliate.
Channel 6
The Three Stooges show was either hosted by Hoosier Hank (Hank Beidenger) or Harlow
Hickenlooper (Hal Fryar) on this date. IIRC, this was about when the changeover occurred.
I didn't remember the daily Indy 500 show being on any station other than Channel 13.
Channel 8
WISH-TV didn't run a whole lot of programming other than local news and CBS network fare in
those days. They did have Selwin on Saturday nights, a horror host that was popular, but not
anywhere near as much as the later Sammy Terry on WTTV.
Channel 13
WLW-I was a sister station to the Crosley/ABCO stations in Ohio, but all of them were NBC.
Channel 13 became the first home of David Letterman by the end of the decade.
KIndergarten College was a very well done educational show aimed at pre-schoolers (obviously).
It remained on Channel 13 until the market got PBS and Sesame Street became popular. WLWI
also aired Sesame Street during its first season.

What other channels were in that Indiana edition of TVG at that time? (e.g., Lafayette & Terre
Haute stations, maybe even WCIA-3 Champaign, IL)?

Although they were within the market area, WCHU 33 (NBC) Champaign and satellite WICD 24
Danville (both semi-satellites of WICS 20 Springfield) were not listed. Both were flea-powered
stations that barely covered their respective cities of license, and had little to no coverage into
Indiana. They would be shut down in 1967 and replaced by WICD 15 Champaign with a much
larger transmitter and antenna.

Crosley also owned WLW-A in Atlanta (channel 11) which then was ABC. Today it's NBC's WXIA
(owned Tegna).

The Crosley / AVCO WLW-A Atlanta mention brings into play that 1961 was a time of uncertainty
for WLW-I Indianapolis. Long standing legal wrangling had resulted in a 1961 FCC decision that
ownership of WLW-I should transfer to Fairbanks Broadcasting, owner of Indpls radio station
WIBC. Crosley appealed and a year later finalized a deal with Fairbanks to swap ownership of
WLW-I and WLW-A.
Yes, the ownership flap was settled in 1962. But WLW-I was still the red-headed stepchild of the
Crosley group, and would remain a 3rd-rate operation (by their own admission!) until the station
was sold to Dispatch in the late '70s and became WTHR.
WLW-I's signal was so bad that ABC's converage of JFK's assassination also aired on WTTV, the
previous ABC affiliate, in order for the network to be seen on the south side of the market.
Channel 13 was all but unviewable in Bloomington and Columbus much of the time. IIRC, WTTV
maintained a secondary affiliation with ABC after they lost the primary affiliation in '57, but I
don't recall them airing any ABC programming other than this.
Captain Starr may have preceded Hoosier Hank, so he would have been before my time.
WISH: Debbie Drake was a produced from the WISH Riddick Building studios. For a time, WISH
was home to Cowboy Clyde who did wrap-arounds to cartoons for the kids. Gene Alisson did
local wrap-arounds to the afternoon movie. And a local Pastor, Russ Blowers hosted "The Chapel
Door." WISH expanded it's local programming by the early 70s, including a Saturday morning kid
show called "Clowning Around" and a 9 am weekday local talk show hosted by one time ABC
news Capitol Hill reporter Wally Bruner. Bruner also hosted a syndicated home repair show
based at WISH called "Wally's Workshop." Bruner was replaced on the morning talker by Janet
Langhart. Langhart eventually moved to Boston television and is married to one time Defense
Secretary William Cohen.
I remember the Debbie Drake show, but I didn't know that it was produced at Channel 8. I
thought it was syndicated from NY or LA. Cowboy Clyde doesn't ring a bell -- was he already
gone by '61? I remember Wally Bruner later in the '60s, but I was too young to watch him at this
time.
WTTV: Didn't Chuck Marlowe play the Ruffles the Clown character? The 60s were a great time
for local kids programming at WTTV. Names like Happy Herb, Janie, Cowboy Bob. Arguably the
best was a ventriloquist named John B and his dummy Clem who hosted Lunchtime Theater.
Upon further review, Marlowe was Ruffles the Clown's sidekick. He also played Kedso the Clown
on another show, sponsored by Keds sneakers. All this between gigs announcing wrestling and IU
& Purdue basketball. Herb Isaacs also called basketball games for a time.
Independent stations had to improvise and their personnel had to do double- and triple-duty in
the '50s and '60s. Not just (then) small-market KPHO Phoenix or mid-market WTTV, but even
"behemoth" WGN-TV Chicago. WGN's Jack Brickhouse did news and political reporting as well as
sports, and Ray Rayner handled several kids shows on the same day, plus weather. Chuck
Marlowe was that multi-talented guy at WTTV.

Some parts of far western Indiana (maybe even in the Terre Haute area) might have also been
able to receive ETV/NET (now PBS) outlet WILL-12 Urbana, IL--which signed on in 1955 but is not
listed in this Indiana TVG edition.
And not too long after this edition was published, WCIA would face a third threat in its then 7
1/2-year history to its VHF channel 3 position, in favor of de-intermixing the Champaign side of
the Springfield/Decatur/Champaign market into all-UHF on both sides, with the exception of the
forementioned WILL (which was also considered for a channel move from 12 to 3 if WCIA was
forced to UHF). If this had occurred, most likely the Champaign/Danville and Springfield/Decatur
sides of the market might have been split into two now +100 markets a la Peoria/Bloomington
[which in those moves lost a channel 8 allocation to the Quad Cities, which was the eventual
WQAD-8 Moline; similar action forced channel 2's allocation out of Springfield and into both St.
Louis (KTVI) and Terre Haute (WTWO)].
Great article from a GREAT Central Illinois TV history page created by a WICD-Champaign
weatherman (Doug Quick) concerning the first 10 years of WCIA's history and all the threats the
station faced to its channel 3 position in its early years:

I'm confused about the listings for Channel 3 Champaign and Channel 10 Terre Haute, in this TV
Guide. I always thought that stations in the Central Time Zone ran almost all their shows at the
same time as Eastern Time Zone stations, except for something like the "Today Show" which runs
at 7am local time, regardless of time zone. In this TV Guide, 3 and 10 do the opposite. They ran
the first two shows of the day (CBS News with Richard C. Hottelet and Captain Kangaroo) at the
same time as the other CBS affiliates. But the rest of the schedule, they both were an hour
ahead, for daytime and prime time shows.
So as soon as Captain Kangaroo is over, they go right to "I Love Lucy." The other CBS stations get
an hour to run whatever they want, local or syndicated, before the daytime CBS schedule takes
over. 3 and 10 do their late news at 10pm E.T. while everyone else in this TV Guide do their late
news at 11pm. So I'm confused. If Champaign and Terre Haute are in the Central Time Zone, why
are these local stations in effect TWO hours ahead of where they should be? If they are doing
their late news at 10pm Eastern Time, that must mean they are doing their late news at 9pm
Central Time.
Unless TV Guide is correcting for the time zone difference? They figured readers in Illinois and far
Western Indiana, where Terre Haute is, want their listings in their local time? So they show 3 and
10 programs in local time, even though anyone with a good antenna pulling in stations from the
Eastern Time Zone will be all confused? Maybe 3 and 10 ARE running most daytime and evening
shows at the same time as the Eastern Time Zone stations?
By the way, 10 WTHI is listed as being a CBS, ABC and NBC affiliate, although a quick glance
doesn't show anything other than CBS programs.
As for "Fast Time" and "Slow Time," the Indianapolis, Fort Wayne, Muncie and Lafayette stations
all seem to be on Eastern Time, but Channel 3 Champaign and 10 Terre Haute ran a lot of their
shows an hour ahead of the other CBS affiliates in this TV Guide, so I assume they were both in
the Central Time Zone.
But I always thought that stations in the Central Time Zone ran almost all their shows at the
same time as Eastern Time Zone stations, except for something like the "Today Show." In this TV
Guide, 3 and 10 ran the first two shows of the day (CBS News with Richard C. Hottelet and
"Captain Kangaroo") at the same time as the other CBS affiliates. But the rest of the schedule,
they were both an hour ahead, for both daytime and prime time shows. So as soon as Captain
Kangaroo is over, they go right to "I Love Lucy." The other CBS stations get an hour to run
whatever they want before the daytime CBS schedule takes over.
Indianapolis stations ran their network fare on a one-hour tape delay in the summer to keep
them on the Eastern schedule, even though they were on Central Daylight Time during the
summer, as was the rest of the state other than the Cincinnati and Louisville suburbs.
But in the early '60s, some counties in Indiana used Eastern time and some used Central. Also,
some used DST and some did not. One notable case was Santa Claus IN, where one half of the
town observed DST and the other half didn't. It was all very confusing, so TV Guide listed "slow
time" in parentheses.
Things settled down after 1967, with only a few county adjustments either way. All of Indiana
save for "The Region," Evansville, Cincinnati, and Louisville areas did not observe DST. NW and
SW Indiana were on Central time with DST, and suburban Cincinnati and Louisville were on
Eastern time with DST. IIRC it was only about 10 years ago when all of Indiana started observing
DST.
After 1968, the real meaning of "slow time" was discovered: It was found that people in the
counties that observed "slow time" took an hour and a half to watch 60 Minutes.
By the way, 10 is listed as being a CBS, ABC and NBC affiliate, although a quick glance doesn't
show anything other than CBS programs.
Before 1973, when Terre Haute got its first full-time ABC affiliate on Channel 38, that network
was fill-in on WTHI-TV 10, and later was split between it and WTWO 2 when it went on the air in
1965. WTHI only rarely aired NBC shows, and IIRC didn't join that network untill WTTV lost the
NBC affiliation in 1956.
WTTV, with its transmitter in Cloverdale, about halfway between Indy and TH, from 1954-57,
was the de facto NBC affilliate for Terre Haute. I don't have any schedules handy, but I'm
guessing that WTHI dropped ABC during the 1956-57 season and aired more NBC shows while
WTTV was the ABC affiliate.
WTTV moved to Trafalgar right about the time they lost ABC to WLW-I in October 1957. They
were still incapable of covering the northern "money" end of the market from Trafalgar, and
that's why they bought WWKI Channel 29 Kokomo in the '80s and made it their satellite. If they
weren't a two-channel operation, I doubt if CBS would have affiliated with them.

I think "Wire Services" was really "Wire Service", a fictional drama series that had run on
network television back in the late 1950's.
> Either WNEW had a very odd philosophy about news or the New
WNEW's 11 P.M. local newscasts must have been killed in the ratings by the network O&O's; in
(the Spring of??) 1967, WNEW abandoned 11 P.M. news and started-up a 10 P.M. newscast
(sister station WTTG-5 in Washington had started a 10 P.M. newscast the previous year; I think
sister station KTTV-11 Los Angeles may have even preceded WTTG with a 10 P.M. newscast)
which became quite successful and was copied by independent stations everywhere (with those
independents in the Central and Mountain time zones running 9 P.M. local newscasts, which was
equvilant to 10 P.M. Eastern/Pacific).

which became quite successful and was copied by independent stations everywhere (with those
independents in the Central and Mountain time zones running 9 P.M. local newscasts, which was
equvilant to 10 P.M. Eastern/Pacific).
The irony is that after WNEW launched The 10 O'Clock News in 1967, WPIX - a longtime local
news pioneer - itself got killed in the news ratings, setting off a chain of events that led to a
series of scandals with their newscasts in late 1968 that in turn led to a well-publicized and
highly-reported decade-long license challenge. Another casualty of WNEW's 10 O'Clock News:
longtime WPIX news director and anchor John Tillman, whose nearly two-decades-long run with
the station came to an end in late 1967.
As for Metropolitan Movie, on the Sunday 3 PM and Saturday 10 PM time slots: Apparently, that
name took effect the very day the former WABD became WNEW-TV on Sept. 7, 1958 (for the
New York TV debut of Angels with Dirty Faces); its predecessor may have been known as Warner
Bros. Movie, on which pre-1948 WB titles as allocated to Channel 5 (as opposed to the group of
films WCBS had that were premiered on The Early Show and The Late Show) had their New York
TV premieres on Sunday nights in prime time. Metropolitan Movie was a reference to what in
1958 had been the Metropolitan Broadcasting Corporation, which owned Channel 5, and what
as of 1965 was the Metropolitan Broadcasting Television division of Metromedia, Inc. (This
movie title was also in use by Washington, DC's WTTG Channel 5, per 1961 listings for DC and
Baltimore put up recently.) After that division was renamed Metromedia Television in 1967
(which dovetailed with the introduction of a proprietary sans-serif font called "Metromedia
Television Alphabet" for use on their TV stations beginning in August), this movie series was
rechristened Metromedia Movie, which it remained until 1986 when Fox took over. The Sunday
1 PM movie would doubtless have been 5 Star Movie, another umbrella title which dated to at
least 1958 (and, until 1961, run within the same weeknight time slot that Hollywood's Finest,
which debuted in 1962, was occupying at this point). I don't know what title(s) their 10 AM and
1:30 PM weekday movies were run by as of 1965, but at the start of the decade they were run
under the respective banners of the 10 O'Clock Movie and Late Lunch Movie.
I.I.N.M., WNEW was also the last of the New York commercial VHF TV stations to go color, albeit
only with film and slide capacity at the outset (among the first feature films shown in color on
Channel 5 were the original Alec Guinness/Peter Sellers The Ladykillers, on the Sept. 9, 1965
Hollywood's Finest, and the Alan Ladd film The McConnell Story, on the Sept. 10, 1965 edition of
Movie Greats); WPIX had done some colorcasting since mid-1965, and WOR had broadcast some
films in color beginning in fall 1960.
I would presume East of Eden (part of a package of post-1948 Warners' films that, until a few
months before this week of 1965, had been with WNBC-TV since 1961) was likewise shown by
Channel 5 in color . . .

This is why WNEW was such a great station to grow up with. All of these guys, along with WPIX's
Joe Bolton, were like gods to me as a young'un.
That said, there's a lot about this schedule that is perplexing. I don't remember Sandy and
Soupy's shows spilling into early evening on weekdays like that (the shows in my memory were
more of a late afternoon after-school ritual), and I definitely do not remember those Saturday
versions of Chuck, Sandy, and Soupy. I wonder if those were original shows, or they just ran
taped repeats of weekday episodes?

Also, what was listed as "Paul Winchell" was actually Winchell-Mahoney Time, which was
produced out of sister station KTTV Channel 11 in Los Angeles and syndicated to other stations
(besides WNEW). At that point, per TV Guide, only the cartoons shown in-between Winchell's
segments were in color.

At the time, most of the shows were "bicycled around" the various markets around the country
and were returned to KTTV in Los Angeles. Metromedia had a bad habit at the time to simply
recycle "spent" videotapes after the run was done. As a result, except for a few tapes toward the
end of the show's run, most were lost. The late Mr. Winchell was NOT pleased at all. Who could
have blamed him. Paul Winchell, a man with unique and varied talents including the patent for
an artificial heart, saw many hours of his renowned children's programming go by the way of the
Metromedia dumpster. I used to watch the show, back in the day, on WKBG-TV in Cambridge
(Boston). I loved it. It ran on Channel 56 well into 1968.

"I think "Wire Services" was really "Wire Service", a fictional drama series that had run on
network television back in the late 1950's."
I believe a show was also taped in Bridgeport, CT, in those early years of the WWWF. Maybe
that's what was shown in New York.
What no talks shows (I.e. Maury, Jerry Springer, Steve Wilkos)aired in those days on WNEW?
1965.
What few first-run talk shows were in existence were tame, celebrity-driven affairs such as Merv
Griffin and Mike Douglas. Both were syndicated by Group W at this point in history; my
recollection is that Group W programming tended to be aired on WPIX/11 in the 1960s.
After Griffin went to CBS in 1969 and was cancelled in 1972, his second syndicated show was
indeed carried on WNEW (in prime-time, as with the rest of Metromedia's stations). Douglas
stayed in syndication and was with Group W all the way to 1980 (a close to 20-year relationship).
Have you done any research on the history of television talk shows? I'm guessing not if you think
shows like Springer and Maury existed in 1965.

Well, maybe that was a joke, since Channel 5 today runs so many of those types of rowdy talk
shows.
I thought it was a good alternative that Merv Griffin aired on Channel 5 in prime time (and as
you mention, on the other Metromedia independent stations around the country). If ABC, NBC
and CBS didn't have something of interest to you, or they were airing repeats, you could tune to
Merv for some banter and fun. Unlike a movie or off-network drama seen on most independents
in prime time, it didn't matter when you tuned in or tuned out.
That's why I didn't think it was a radical idea when NBC tried stripping Jay Leno at 10pm on
weeknights, since WNEW-TV had done it decades before. But of course, Leno in prime time
didn't work out at all.

When WNEW-TV moved their news from 11pm where they were losing to the other channels at
that hour and moved to 10pm it established them at 10pm that is still around to this day.

Once again, you made something up because you don't know the history.
WNEW-TV made the move to 10:00 for their newscast because all of the Metromedia stations
did that at the same time. It was a corporate-wide decision and was more a case of being able to
expand to an hour when most independents in their markets were still doing 30 minutes. Their
research had determined that no one would sit through a 60 minute newscast that started at
11:00, but would if the start time was 10:00. (An hour earlier for their stations in Central Time, of
course.)
It was more about having a longer newscast to sell spots in than it was how they were doing in
the ratings against WCBS, WNBC and WABC.

But surely some counter-programming to the big three network O&Os was involved. If you look
at some LA TV Guides, Metromedia's KTTV 11's 10pm news may have been 60 minutes but KCOP
13 ran its 10pm news for only 30 minutes. (LA's 2, 4, 5 & 7 were all at 11pm.)
Then at 11pm, while everyone else had news, the Metromedia stations could counter-program
with a sitcom or something else to grab the audience that didn't care about news. Before 10pm
news for independent stations became commonplace, some independent stations, and even
ABC affiliates, would delay their late news to 11:30, so they could run an entertainment show at
11pm, while the CBS and NBC affiliates were running their late news.

...you appear to not realise that, unlike New York, the anchors on the two bigger indies in Los
Angeles -- KTLA/5 and KTTV/11 -- were usually bigger stars than the network O&Os had. George
Putnam and Hal Fishman were on both KTLA and KTTV during their careers, and Alex Dreier
arrived from WBKB/7 Chicago at KTTV in '67; the closest to such "star" anchors at the O&Os was
Jerry Dunphy at CBS' KNXT/2 and Jack Latham at KNBC/4. On the other hand, the other indies --
RKO General's KHJ-TV/9, Chris Craft's KCOP/13, and eventually KIIX and KPOL-TV/KWHY both on
Channel 22, KMEX/34 and KXLA/40 -- always played catch-up ball with their newscasts. One of
KHJ's anchors was Ann Marshall, better known as an actress (My Favorite Martian, My Three
Sons) and pop singer (The Mike Curb Congregation, Heaven Bound). After losing some notables
(Hal Fishman to KTTV, Baxter Ward to KABC-TV/7) in the early '60s, KCOP's most notable anchor
wasn't a journalist, but game show announcer and former KRLA/1110 disc jockey Charlie
O'Donnell. The news departments at KHJ and KCOP were so weak that by 1967 they'd both quit
10:00 newscasts; KHJ would have Allan Moll read headlines in-between prime-time movies at
various times and lengths, and KCOP limited itself to one midday newscast at 11:00 AM. KIIX's
target audience, the African-American communities on Los Angeles' South Side and suburbs,
limited anything they were able to try (though one of their staffers, Larry McCormick, spent
decades at KTLA afterwards), as did KMEX's Spanish-speaking audience. The stock market
reportage during KWHY's daytime constituted their news department, and Bilingual KXLA used
their 8:00 PM newscast to split its schedule blocks, with Lyn Sherwood's first 15 minutes winding
up English for the day, and Miguel Alonso's next 15 minutes kicking off the night's Spanish
programming. Thus, the news market was most realistically spread five ways, between KNXT,
KNBC, KTLA, KABC and KTTV, and comparing KTTV to KCOP is like comparing the Dodgers to the
Loyola Marymount Lions...

the anchors on the two bigger indies in Los Angeles -- KTLA/5 and KTTV/11 -- were usually bigger
stars than the network O&Os had. George Putnam and Hal Fishman were on both KTLA and
KTTV during their careers
The former became such a major personality that he literally walked back and forth between
KTLA and KTTV several times during his career (usually at contract renewal time, sometimes
because he would anger management with his editorializing) -- the stations were literally across
Van Ness Ave. from each other on the south side of Sunset Blvd. -- and whichever station had
him at the time would bill the 10:00 news, both in print ads and on the air, as "George Putnam
News".
And the audience would invariably follow George from channel 5 to channel 11 and then back
again.
In the early 1960's, KTTV also did a 15-minute newscast in the 6:00pm hour, competing with the
network O&Os' casts, with Putnam as the anchor. It was there that he developed his trademark
sign off: "Ladies and gentlemen, that's the news, up-to-the-minute, that's all the news. Back at
ten, see you then!" (I bet King Daevid remembers that as clearly as I.)
He had another trademark signature, created when KTTV management finally gave up on ever
getting him to stop editorializing and gave him a specific segment of the 10:00 news to do so. As
George was about to make his point, he would precede it with "and it is this reporter's opinion
that ..." (similar to way Dennis Miller would always segue from his monologue to the rant with
the signal "now, I don't want to get off on a rant here, but ..." -- maybe Dennis got the idea from
George!).
When he originally left the television anchor chair in 1975, he moved to radio, where he hosted
a conservative interview and call-in talk show called "Talk Back" which aired on AM 870 for more
than a quarter-century, then via the CRN network. For many years it originated at a remote
studio in downtown L.A. at the ARCO Plaza building, where there were chairs set up for people
to sit and watch the show through plate glass windows; they even had a microphone on the
audience side of the windows for people to comment as if they were calling in.
He returned to anchor weekend television news at KHJ-TV and KCOP for brief stints in the 1990s,
and passed away in 2008. Putnam was more right-wing than William Buckley -- his anti-
Communism commentaries were legendary in their own way -- but he struck a resonant nerve
with the Los Angeles viewers and was a genuine star personality.
...only from airchecks I've heard, as I was a toddler in Chicagoland at the time and my
grandmother damn near glued the dial to WMAQ-TV/5 to get her nightly fix of Chet Huntley and
Floyd Kalber ;-) . It's also notable that George Putnam, for all his conservative bluster, openly
admired some on the other side of the political ledger; Harlan Ellison, when he wrote his heavily-
leftist TV column The Glass Teat for the Los Angeles Free Press, once expressed his mixed
emotions at finding out Putnam was a huge fan of the column, while Harlan himself couldn't
stand George at all...

This is hilarious- I may have very well been working the overnight shift (ending at about 7 am or
so) at KCPQ this weekend. I did Saturday and Sunday (or was it Friday and Saturday?) overnights
for quite a while in the very late 80's and early '90's. Warning: That 5 am airing of Headline News
may not have been live! We often taped an hour in the middle of the night because we needed
the satellite dish for some other program at 5 am.
Speaking of Headline News, wasn't there a straight-on-syndicated version (30 minutes)? KIMA
had Headline News at 12PM for many years (they did have a short-lived local newscast, and then
went back to CNN) until around 2002. They may have been the last over-the-air station with
CNN-HN.
Hope you enjoyed watching Monsters and Friday the 13th; etc.

--"Gunsmoke" in the access slot reminds me I've seen a lot of hour shows in access in the 70s.
When did stations universally shift to just doing half-hour shows?
--You're right that Yakima didn't have cable this time; they did have it by 1978.

--If you're wondering why "MacGyver" comes on Sunday, remember that KOMO Seattle was still
tape delaying Monday Night Football at this time until 7pm. So they passed up the usual West
Coast practice of airing "MacGyver" right after football; don't know if they stuck to that in later
years.
--The Seahawks game started at 10pm, but the pregame didn't start until 4pm? Odd.
--Finally, does anyone about the listing for "Nanny" at 7pm? Obviously, the Fran Drescher sitcom
didn't start until years later, and the names don't match up with "Nanny and the Professor". I
wonder what show it refers to.
Seahawks game was on at 10AM - east coast away game. The Postgame may have been
prerecorded to air after American Graffiti.
Yes, KOMO still thought that 6:00PM news was better than airing MNF live. Unlike KAPP-35,
which aired MNF right at 6PM.
I'm still wondering if Adventure BC was a CBUT-only program, or if it was relayed to the other
CBC affiliates. I now know that this was CBC North's feed, and not channel 2 Vancouver...

"The Babysitter." [1980] Needing help to care for her rambunctious daughter, Tara (Quinn
Cummings), Liz Benedict (Patty Duke Astin) hires teen Joanna (Stephanie Zimbalist) as a
housekeeper and baby sitter. Liz's husband, Jeff (William Shatner), a doctor, does not approve of
the idea, but Joanna initially does a wonderful job keeping things in order. Slowly, however, she

I'm guessing this came out of the Memphis Commercial Appeal "Mid-South" TV tab? They had a
section in the back which featured an expanded area of listings for the likes of Paducah/Cape
Girardeau, Jackson, etc.
Couple of observations -- WMC 5 picking up Dinah! was only the beginning of their notorious
dismantling of NBC daytime.
Second, I'd forgotten how WLBT 3 in Jackson did their own share of preemptions in the '70s. The
9:00 program was the local institution Coffee With Judy, hosted by Judy Moon (formerly a
"weather girl"), plus the "Romper Room"-styled Our Playmates. The latter was an award-winning
show - created very soon after the station passed into "interim" hands in 1971.
I was living in Tupelo in 1976, so the afternoon schedules really took me back. Brady Bunch, back
to back, on 5 and 9 respectively. Those were the days..... : : :

Thanks for the info about Judy and Playmates, Russell W. I lived in Northeast, MS then and could
pick up all the Memphis stations, Tupelo, and Florence, AL. But we couldn't get the central MS
stations. I've always been fascinated by local programming. When I was a kid, I always wanted
people to bring me back TV Guides from their travels. I was a very odd kid, but I got a kick out of
knowing what other people got to see, and wondering what their locally produced shows were
like.

Only two of the Jackson, Mississippi stations were listed, and one of those was a U, WAPT. The
odd man out here was CBS affil WJTV, on channel 12. Wonder what the CA's thinking was on
that?
Take these things into consideration: 1) The CA's circulation reach at the time was probably the
northern third of the state of Mississippi, down to about Greenville, Greenwood, and maybe as
far as Columbus. Surely it didn't go down as far as, say, Vicksburg?
This becomes important because 2) UHF signals were notoriously weak in those days, and I don't
know the technical facts, but WAPT's reach couldn't have been more than in a 60-mile radius
around Jackson--far short of the southern end of CA's southern boundary in the Mississippi
Delta.
Meanwhile, 3) WJTV probably had a similar reach to WLBT, some 75-90 standard miles as one
would expect from a V in a geographically large, predominantly rural market like Jackson. Its
signal, by contrast, was probably visible in the southern part of the Delta. So the CA's listing
WAPT really made no sense.
Also conspicuously missing are the Arkansas stations, namely the three Little Rock V affils,
Jonesboro ABC affil KAIT, and the state ETV system. Perhaps this listing was culled from a
separate edition aimed at the areas east and south of Memphis, I don't know. But that would be
the only explanation I could imagine.
Further, only one Nashville station is listed for those parts of western Tennessee near the
Tennessee River within the fringe areas of the 100-mile signals of the Vs in that market--WTVF.
Strangely enough, in those days, WTVF was short-spaced to Memphis' WMC-TV, the NBC affil.
Wonder how cable systems (what few existed then, probably) and viewers fared with two close
signals warring for that channel space? But more to the point, why didn't the CA list ABC affil
WNGE (now WKRN) or NBC affil WSM (now WSMV)? Those two stations probably came in much
clearer to viewers east of Jackson, Tennessee, without the interference that would have dogged
WTVF back in the day (all memories now with DTV and ubiquitous cable, of course).
Point being, the CA was pretty arbitrary in its selections for the daily TV page. It may not have
been so with the Sunday insert, perhaps approaching the breadth of the old Louisville Courier-
Journal, with its listing of every TV signal that came into the state of Kentucky. But I don't think I
would have found the CA reliable if I were living in those times. About the only thing that our
new technologies have made simpler, IMO, is the elimination of out-of-market OTA signals from
cable systems (most of them, anyway).

signal, by contrast, was probably visible in the southern part of the Delta. So the CA's listing
WAPT really made no sense.
Even more so, notably missing from this lineup is the one VHF station in the
Greenwood/Greenville area - WABG Channel 6 (ABC). I can't speak for its reach - and I can only
guess (without looking at old BC Yearbooks) that in 1976 they were still on a shorter tower. Still,
that would be an ABC I'd include before going with WAPT.
[side remark: There was an ad I saw in a late '60s Clarion-Ledger for WABG 6, touting "the full
ABC schedule" ... so I'm led to wonder how close a watchable signal extended toward Jackson]
As for the Appeal's circulation area, I can guess that it's highly doubtful it reached much beyond
US 82 across the state. Below that, and you're in prime Clarion-Ledger territory.
At the same time, I do believe WAPT was on the cable system in Starkville (and for a time, even
WBRC/Birmingham was, too).
But that still doesn't explain the omission of WJTV 12. Prior to WXVT 15 powering up out of
Greenville and bring a local CBS to the area, I'd think WJTV had just as much influence as
WREG ... corresponding with the overlap of NBC on WLBT and WMC.
Also conspicuously missing are the Arkansas stations, namely the three Little Rock V affils,
Jonesboro ABC affil KAIT, and the state ETV system. Perhaps this listing was culled from a
separate edition aimed at the areas east and south of Memphis, I don't know. But that would be
the only explanation I could imagine.
That's an even bigger head-scratcher. Jonesboro's cable historically carried the Little Rock
stations along with Memphis and local KAIT (and KTEJ 19 - AETN's repeater when it signed on in
1976). Fact is, most of the Little Rock stations had virtually statewide coverage cable-wise at one
time or another.

KATV was even carried on the cable in West Memphis at one time.
I know the tv listings in the Commercial Appeal were zoned but that wouldn't explain this
channel line up.
WNGE was probably not viewed in too many counties where the CA circulated but WSM was on
the cable in Jackson along with WTVF.
Despite being on channel 5, WTVF was on the cable in more of West TN than any of the other
Nashville stations. There where some places in Northwest TN where ABC was apparently WBBJ,
NBC was WPSD and CBS was WTVF instead of WREG or KFVS which makes no sense to me.

Russell, good job building upon my concerns! I didn't even notice the absence of WABG, which
makes all of this even more strange as hell. On channel 6, I suspect it might have been seen as
far north as Oxford and Tunica, perhaps, in counties that had plenty of CA subscribers and paper
boxes.
I don't know nearly as much about Arkansas, but I suspect you would be right in that at least
one, if not all, of the Little Rock Vs would be viewed in places like Forrest City, Marianna, and
Helena, in the Delta region. Maybe the CA didn't get good circulation in Arkansas outside the
extreme eastern counties along present-day Interstate 40, as it might have in Mississippi. We
must remember that Little Rock had a spirited competition between two dailies, the Democrat
and the Gazette (which have since merged), that were surely available everywhere in the state,
thereby leaving many retailers with no room to have CA boxes in addition to the Little Rock
dailies and the local papers.
As for you, Brian, you have brought up a point that is way-crazy, even by the standards of that
time. People would actually prefer watching CBS on Nashville's channel 5, knowing full well that
the signal might get interrupted by Memphis' WMC, rather than a perhaps fuzzier, but more
certain picture from WREG or even KFVS? On cable, of course, it would not have been an issue
due to different head ends (I would love to find out info about where they would have been
located), but cable was only available in the county-seat towns (if there); out in the country, you
apparently had to take your chances. Has anybody on this forum ever spent time in ages past in
that no-man's land (sorry, ladies, for being sexist) of rural western Tennessee and encountered
the WTVF/WMC short-spacing issue and the war those signals obviously fought for reception on
your set?
I think your smiley answer, Russell, is the only one that can be provided regarding these issues.
But here's something to remember: the CA listed its sister TV station, WMC, first everyday in the
listings before WREG, WHBQ, and WKNO, despite having only the second channel number
sequentially (3, 5, 10, 13). The parent organization back then, of course, was Scripps-Howard,
then one of the biggest publishers and broadcasters around. That may explain, for instance, the
decision not to list Nashville's WSM as a rival NBC station for western Tennessee (or KARK for
eastern Arkansas)--although to be fair, it did list WPSD for northwestern Tennessee, WTWV for
northeastern Mississippi, and WLBT for the Mississippi Delta. It also suggests that the paper
"played favorites" with those stations it did list, favoring some and excluding others on the basis
of its perceptions of how each station would affect the ratings of WMC. Sounds cynical, I know,
but even then TV was a cut-throat biz. (But then, how do you explain the absence of the ETV
systems in Arkansas and Mississippi? PBS had, as it does today, only a miniscule audience.)

I know this is a very old thread, but I thought some of you might be interested in some
additional details.
I grew up in Rolling Fork, Mississippi, which is about 45 miles north of Vicksburg. When I was
very small, WAPT was not yet on the air, so we didn't really watch any UHF channels (WMAA, if
memory serves, was channel 29, but...we rarely watched public television). Also, we didn't have
cable; Rolling Fork didn't get cable until after I started college, I believe. We had a tall antenna on
the back of our house that we had to go outside and physically turn in one direction or another.
When WAPT started broadcasting, we found it difficult to tune in on our TV (which of course had
the type of UHF dial that was similar to a radio dial -- difficult to tune precisely), so we continued
to watch ABC programming on WABG (Greenwood-Greenville), which required going outside
and turning the antenna to point north, toward Greenville, rather than southeast, toward
Jackson. I used to do this on Saturday mornings when I wanted to watch Super Friends on ABC.
Like another poster in the thread, I have distinct memories of Coffee with Judy. I had completely
forgotten about Our Playmates, but when I saw this thread, the memory came rushing back...I
can still hear the announcer saying the name of the show as it started (was that Woody Assaf?).
I'm also interested to see the clearance for the ABC soap Ryan's Hope, which was a terrific show.
Of the all-ABC stations listed, WHBQ (Memphis) doesn't seem to have carried it at all; WAPT
(Jackson, MS) carried it at the "regular" time of noon, and WBBJ (Jackson, TN) carried it at the
"daytime graveyard" time (if I may invent a term) of 3:30 p.m.

I am curious about the WLBT listing. It has Dark Shadows listed at 3:30 p.m. but it aired from
June 27, 1966 April 2, 1971. Was DS already in syndication that quickly?

WMC shows they had NBC's 50 Grand Slam, which along with Stumpers (which WMC didn't
clear) debuted on this date. But the other NBC stations in the list don't show these two listed,
still showing Celebrity Sweepstakes and The Fun Factory both of which ended October 1st. I was
thinking that these were day delays but the time slots show they are in pattern.

are done by Ulmer Turner. Even though they are brief, his newscasts are at 10:55am, 11:55am,
12:55pm, 2:25pm, 4pm, then others do the dinnertime news, then he's back for the 11pm and

No, those were different stations ... and the CBS involvement referenced in the original post is
slightly skewed.

The Cincinnati station was part of the ashes of the ill-fated Overmyer Network:

1953 was an early year for TV and for TV Guide. In this edition, Julius LaRosa and Dorothy
McGuire are on the cover with the headline "Meet the Girl LaRosa Loves--Dorothy McGuire" This
was not long after Arthur Godfrey fired LaRosa live on the air, which is discussed in one article
and a look at McGuire as LaRosa's new girlfriend in another.
...and, it should be repeated, that firing took place over CBS Radio, in spite of the numerous
people who swear up and down to this day that they saw it over CBS Television...
2 WBBM-TV CBS Chicago
...of course, in the '60s and '70s, Rayner would be a staple -- in this general time frame -- of
WGN-TV/9's kiddie programming...
9am Jack Paar Show--Variety. Edith Adams and Richard Hayes. (Is that Edie Adams?)
...indeed, she was. Edythe [sic] would begin TV with Ernie Kovacs at WPTZ/3 Philadelphia some
months earlier, and moved with Ernie to New York earlier this year...
...Lee Phillip held this time slot on WBBM-TV for decades before co-creating and producing The
Young & the Restless and The Bold & the Beautiful for CBS. Thus, her association with CBS is by
far the longest anyone has ever had with CBS, and is only surpassed by Don Pardo's association
with NBC...
2:30 Bob Crosby. "Papaya Mama," "Ebb Tide" and a football medley. (Brother of Bing Crosby.)
...and, by this time (IIRC), the bandleader on Jack Benny's Lucky Strike Program...
3pm Petticoat Party--Games. Frazer Thomas. (Guests invited to Garrick Theater. No tickets
needed.)
...like Ray Rayner, Frazier Thomas wound up at WGN-TV, hosting Garfield Goose and Friends,
Family Classics and Bozo's Circus...
3:30 Shopping with Miss Lee. Buying hints and fashion tips.
...Lee Phillip again. She even had a "Battle of the Sexes" item on WBBM Radio and TV with Paul
Gibson entitled The Lady & The Tiger...
5pm Garfield Goose. "King" Garfield and Frazer Thomas. (Same guy who hosted Petticoat Party
at 3pm.)
...and same show that Thomas took to WGN-TV and hosted until 1976...
...Elson had a long history of calling Cubs and White Sox games for WCFL Radio, where he still
had a morning drive talk program at this time; his call of a 1936 post-season Cubs-White Sox
exhibition game, and a subsequent sportscast over NBC-owned WENR, is at
https://archive.org/download/1930-19...hite%20Sox.mp3...
...Flynn would be fired from WBBM-TV in 1968 because refused to stop wearing bow ties on-
camera; he took his bow ties to WBKB/7 and stayed on the air for another dozen-plus years
4 WTMJ-TV Milwaukee NBC (They stay on the air after midnight but don't carry the Today show
in the morning. They produce many of their own shows and only carry some of the NBC
schedule.)
...my grandmother, Rosemary Bornhuetter, was one of the earliest hosts of this long-running
cooking show...
...Pettit later worked for WGN-TV as a color commentator for Chicago Cubs games and the play-
by-play voice of the Chicago Blackhawks...
7pm Dave Garroway Show. Music-variety series with Cliff Norton, Shirley Hermer, Skitch
Henderson. (Did Garroway host this prime time show in addition to the Today Show?)
...yes, he did. This was essentially a continuation of Garroway At Large, the Chicago-based variety
hour that brought him his first national fame...
8pm Liberace--Music
5 WNBQ Chicago NBC (I guess these early call letters were a cross between WMAQ and NBC?)
...yep. In the '40s and '50s, most of the original call signs of the NBC and CBS O&O's didn't copy
their radio counterparts. In NBC's case, New York was WNBT rather than WEAF-TV, Cleveland
was WNBK rather than WTAM-TV, Washington was WNBW rather than WRC-TV, and Chicago was
WNBQ. NBC also had KNBH in Los Angeles, but they never owned a radio station in Los Angeles
or Hollywood...
6pm Clint Youle--Weather (Notice WNBQ has no real 6pm evening newscast.)
6:05 Alex Dreier--Features
10:45 Herbie Mintz--Music. (Before NBC had the Tonight Show, WNBQ has two local music shows
in late night.)
...Miller was also the top morning disc jockey in Chicago radio at the time, on WIND...
7 WBKB Chicago ABC (Becomes WLS-TV in 1968. Because ABC's daytime schedule is so limited,
stations like WBKB have to do their own mix of kiddie shows, local talk/variety shows and
cooking programs to fill the schedule. --- Also note that seven local newscasts through the day
are done by Ulmer Turner. Even though they are brief, his newscasts are at 10:55am, 11:55am,
12:55pm, 2:25pm, 4pm, then others do the dinnertime news, then he's back for the 11pm and
1:30am newscasts. Did his day really go this long or did WBKB just credit him for most news,
even though others on staff would do fringe times?)
2pm Claude Kirchner Show. Comments especially for women. (How did he do this show in
Chicago and do a 4pm show in Milwaukee on WTMJ on the same day?)
6:05 Jack Drees--News (I wonder how this newscast differs from the 6pm news?)
...I believe Kiplinger's newscast was mainly business news headlines, while Drees, later a
sportscaster for CBS, concentrated on sports headlines...
9 WGN-TV Chicago Dumont Network (When the Dumont Network shut down in 1956, WGN-TV
was independent for the next several decades.)
...WGN-TV had earlier split the Chicago CBS-TV affiliation with WBKB/4 before CBS bought
Channel 4, renamed it WBBM-TV, moved that station to Channel 2 and sold the old WBKB
studios and call sign to ABC's WENR-TV/7...
...no, Jack Brickhouse. Voice of the Chicago Cubs for decades, also play-by-play man for the
Chicago White Sox, Bears and Blackhawks at different times and the king of Chicago pro
wrestling commentators...
25 WCAN-TV Milwaukee CBS (Wikipedia says this station had good ratings for an early UHF
outlet, sometimes beating VHF WTMJ-TV 4. But in 1954, CBS bought another UHF station in
Milwaukee to air CBS programming, and WCAN was off the air a short time later.)
...actually, CBS bought what had been WOKY-TV/19, the ABC and DuMont affiliate. Eleven
months after this, WOKY-TV would lose its ABC affiliation to WTVW/12, and DuMont was already
crumbling, so CBS bought them out and transferred the network programming from WCAN-TV
to Channel 19. CBS also bought WCAN-TV's studio site and operated the newly-renamed WXIX
from there...
9:30 The Files of Jeffery Jones. Dan Haggerty. (WCAN doesn't run Edward R. Murrow here.)
...not tonight, anyway. But when Murrow did his See It Now exposes of Senator Joseph
McCarthy, WCAN-TV was the only Wisconsin CBS affiliate to carry them; WBAY-TV/2 Green Bay
ran a DuMont wrestling show from Chicago and WKOW-TV/27 ran Badge 714, the syndicated
reruns of Dragnet...
...yep...

Did the early Chicago-Milwaukee TVG editions later get Madison and Rockford stations included
(similar to the later Illinois-Wisconsin edition with all four of those markets)? Were there even
other markets' stations (e.g., the Champaign and Quad Cities' V's) included in early Chicago-area
TVG's?

Actually, since that contradicted some of the information in Dick Golembiewski's article at the
History of UHF Television website, I did some additional research on that part of the WCAN-TV
article and will be updating same.
WOKY-TV did not "lose" the ABC affiliation. They announced on September 1, 1954 that they
were relinquishing it effective October 1, and ABC later announced WTVW would take the
affiliation when it began commercial operation (which ended up being October 27).
CBS had originally planned on affiliating with channel 6 in Whitefish Bay when it went on the air,
but it was still in hearings at that time, with Hearst being the leading applicant. But in the
summer of 1954, Hearst's radio-television columnists launched an attack on CBS' news
commentators, which forced them to look at their options. That was when the game plan
changed to the one that actually happened, using WOKY-TV's license with WCAN-TV's facilities.

Hey, guys! Any way you can do the schedules for December 31st., 1999?
This comes from the San Diego Union-Tribune, July 2, 1973. Just the day before, ABC moved
from XETV/ch. 6 to KCST/ch. 39, the result of a lawsuit KCST filed charging that a station licensed
to Mexico cannot air programs from an American TV network (XETV is licensed to Tijuana, MX).
Additional note: the Watergate hearings are being aired in rotation by the networks, so daytime
fare will be affected. I'm not sure which network aired it this day.

Not sure since I only had access to that day's listing. The baseball game came from NBC, so I can
assume that at least at 6 was to be local news and 6:30 was NBC News. Then prime time access
fare at 7 and 7:30.
This comes from the San Diego Union-Tribune, July 2, 1973. Just the day before, ABC moved
from XETV/ch. 6 to KCST/ch. 39, the result of a lawsuit KCST filed charging that a station licensed
to Mexico cannot air programs from an American TV network (XETV is licensed to Tijuana, MX).
I forgot about this post when the History of UHF Television website went live last Christmas, or I
would have posted this then.
The above is sort-of correct, but having researched channel 39's history using Broadcasting and
the San Diego Union (the merger with the Evening Tribune didn't take place until 1992), it's
slightly backwards and not complete.
KAAR had gone dark concurrent with KEBS/15 signing on June 12, 1967. It was then sold to Bass
Brothers Enterprises and returned to the air as KCST February 2, 1968. It was under the Bass
ownership that the question of ABC affiliation came up.
When XETV took the ABC affiliation in 1956, it was a necessity due to there being only two
television stations licensed in the San Diego market on the U.S. side of the border. That was the
basis for the FCC granting ABC permission to transmit their programming across the border to
XETV, but the authorization had to be renewed annually. When it came up for renewal in 1968,
KCST challenged it at the FCC because they were now the third licensed station in the market on
the U.S. side.
Both XETV and ABC fought back, and the battle stretched on until 1971, when an administrative
law judge handed down an initial decision favoring the status quo but calling for ABC to be
subjected to an annual audit due to claims they had made in their arguments about potential
hardship. However, the FCC is not bound to accept an ALJ's decision and in 1972 they declared
the XETV affiliation to not be in the public interest, considering the critical point not to be the
claimed financial hardships of the network or channel 6 but the reasoning in the original 1956
decision ... channel 39 was now the third station and it was entitled to a network affiliation if it
wanted one and no FCC-licensed station had it.
One month before the July, 1972 deadline for ABC to switch the affiliation, XETV and the
network filed appeals of the FCC decision, but the decision was upheld by the appellate courts
and so the switch took place as described ... a year late and in two parts, as described in the
article at the UHF site linked below.
So it was not a lawsuit that made it to federal court, but an appeal of an FCC decision, and the
filings were by XETV and ABC, not KCST (which had only filed challenges at the Commission
level).

Do you have anything from the fall of 1971 for San Diego?
I do have the Union TV Week section for the week of September 5-11 of that year but it's going
to be a real b*tch to transscribe as it is in hard-to-read type. Easier for me to zip up the 14 pages
and send it off to you.

As previously noted, I have the first full week of September, and have posted the Sunday listings
here:

I will need to do these in multiple posts as the source publication type gives me a headache if I
spend too much time all at once with it.
This comes from the Atlanta Journal (which at that time had not combined with its morning
edition, the Atlanta Constitution on their Monday-through-Saturday issues). It marked the debut
of a quiz show that in its current form is still running strong.

Very nice. This was the finale for the network kids' shows listed (except for Tom & Jerry, which
would run one more year on CBS and Woody Woodpecker which had one more year on NBC).

Something I should have noted: The CBS "Six Wives of Henry VIII" was carried on a tape-delay on
Saturday evening this same week, making it a case of a pre-empted and delayed network
program later pre-empting another network program.
Note: Although the Union also listed the VHFs from Los Angeles plus KCET/28, I am only listing
the San Diego stations here, because the font and size they chose is hard enough to read in the
first place. They even listed KEYT/3 in Santa Barbara, which was viewable in much of the coastal

...these are ABC networked programs not cleared by XETV. It Was a Very Good Year was a
nostalgia variety show that was hosted by Mel Torme...
Well, something is still wrong, then, because that would indicate XETV pre-empted the 7:30-9:00
block on Monday nights, but the movie they were listed as showing on that Monday was also
airing on KABC-TV/7 and KEYT/3, so obviously it was an ABC network movie.
It is conceivable that XETV decided to make an exception to the Monday night pre-empt because
of the delayed start time of the regular ABC Monday night movie ... but what did KCST run if the
network had a movie feeding which XETV was clearing?
Image1.jpg
...perhaps KCST was getting weeks-old tapes from ABC instead of taking the series off the live
feed? I just checked Brooks and Marsh, and they claim the final episode of It Was a Very Good
Year aired on the ABC line the previous week, August 30th...
Brooks & Marsh have always been meticulous about checking multiple sources for start and end
dates of series, so I'll accept their claim.
Here is a possibility: We know KCST was in the middle of their legal battle before the FCC about
the ABC affiliation in 1971, so it is entirely possible that while the network probably wanted the
clearances for the shows if XETV didn't carry them, they may not have wanted to pay for a live
network interconnection to KCST under the circumstances. But their Los Angeles O&O was just
up the 5 freeway so it wouldn't have been too difficult to bicycle tapes to and from there on a
one-week delay.
Or maybe AT&T didn't want to switch the circuit also used by KCST for CBS on Mondays back and
forth at 9:00, or maybe there had been a problem in the past with that switch happening on
time. Or maybe they were reluctant to mess with the XETV connection while the legal battle was
happening, since the television microwave relay network was completely under FCC jurisdiction.
If I had the listings for the following week (which I do not) I could follow a hunch I have, which is
that XETV was going to be carrying ABC during that Monday night period going forward so KCST
would have been out in the cold anyway. But if they knew that in advance -- and the network
certainly would have advised them -- why didn't they schedule something from their local library
in that slot, unless they were indeed running those ABC programs on tape delay?
Another possibility is that those three shows did not air on channel 39 on September 6 but the
schedule provided to the San Diego Union by KCST still had them scheduled, and the
replacement information didn't get to the newspaper in time for it to be corrected pre-press.
I'm sure no one back then would have ever thought that 40 years in the future, there would be
this much time spent discussing whether or not those three ABC shows aired on that night on
that UHF station!

I went back to my source for the San Diego Union television listings and got the Monday prior
(August 30) and following (September 13) pages from TV Week for those dates.
On August 30, KCST aired It's Your Bet at 7:30pm (the usual weeknight offering in that time slot)
followed by Theater One from 8:00 to 9:30pm. XETV did not clear any of the three ABC shows in
question, but they did not air from 7:30 to 9:00 that week ... they aired from 9:00 to 10:30,
following a pre-season NFL game between the Jets and the Chiefs. (Channel 6, meanwhile, aired
the programming that would have aired at 6:00 in that time slot (Wild Wild West/Truth or
Consequences). Channel 39 had a movie on at 9:30. Obviously, the KCST airings of Let's Make A
Deal, The Newlywed Game, and It was A Very Good Year were on a one-week delay.
So now what is unknown is whether KCST usually carried those three ABC shows at their usual
times, or if XETV's pre-emption was only for that one Monday. And if so, what did XETV carry
from 7:30 to 9:00 on Mondays? And why didn't they just run the pre-empted programs on a tape
delay later in the week? For that matter, why didn't KCST?
I get no clues from the September 13 listings as KCST pre-empted its regular schedule beginning
at 7:00pm to carry the lightweight championship fight between Ken Buchanan and Ismael
Laguna. XETV had To Tell The Truth at 7:30 and Man In Motion at 8:00, then joined the network
on schedule at 8:30 for a movie. KABC had a local movie from 6:30 to 8:00, then a NFL preview
show before the network flick; KEYT ran Partridge Family at 7:30 and That Girl at 8:00.
You'd think that, since I've been collecting Barbie dolls since the 1980s, that I would have written
down the date that a Barbie-related cartoon aired. Stupid me didn't do it. There is no mention of
this program at the IMDb.
Some background:
The second series of the Barbie and the Rockers dolls were sold in 1987: Barbie, Ken, Diva,
DeeDee, Dana and Derek.
Barbie's new band in 1988 was the Sensations: Barbie, Becky, Bopsy and Belinda.
In the summer of 1988 or 1989, the Fox network aired a cartoon that was actually two parts. The
first half was about Barbie and the Rockers in outer space, called Out of this World. The second
half was about the Sensations and was called Rockin' Back to Earth. It was shown only this one
time, and as far as I know, has not been seen on TV since. These segments were released
individually on VHS by Hi-Tops Video in 1990. Yes, I have the VHS tapes, but there is no mention
of the original air date.
Do any of you have a way to look up when the cartoon aired? Obviously it would have been from
8 to 9 p.m. When I do a Google search, there are some details about it being a pilot for animated
series in 1987. It may have been a pilot, but the 1987 date was when the songs were written.
Since the Sensations weren't sold until 1988 there's no way it could have aired the year before.
I belong to a number of Barbie discussion groups on the Internet, but I doubt that asking at any
of them would be helpful. At the risk of sounding like I am both bragging and completely
obsessed, I'm the one who can answer people's trivia questions. If I don't know it, then nobody
else does, either!

4:30 - The Rifleman (on Tuesday, pre-empted to carry the school superintendent's report that
was aired live that morning on channels 8 and 10)
During weeknight prime-time, Mission Cable and Southwestern Cable ran local programming on
channels 2, 4 and 7 to blackout network programming duplication from Los Angeles. Most of it is
forgettable "free films" fare, but "4C" ran the Grand Ole Opry for 2 hours every weeknight in
what was apparently first-run syndication.
As a SoCal native and having lived in the San Diego market when I was quite young, I notice that
channel 10 continued to black out the first hour of the Today show for cartoons as they did a
decade earlier.
First, Today was always on a three-hour delay out here, meaning that the first hour on the Pacific
Time Zone feed was airing a full hour after the whole program had finished in Eastern/Central, so
KOGO-TV management likely thought it better to carry the last hour only, as it was the "newest"
one.
Second, KFMB-TV, as they did for years, pre-empted whatever CBS ran at 8:00am for their local
program Sun-Up San Diego -- which is the way they refer to it on their website -- which ran for
three decades (1960-1990) and at this point in the station's history pre-empted the venerable
Captain Kangaroo. They may have felt that under the circumstances it was better to have
something kid-oriented and by starting at 7:00 they could get a half-hour jump on XETV/6.
Third, all the commercial time in that hour was local sales, no network inventory, and cartoons
were relatively inexpensive in syndication.
This is nice, but can you post the schedule for the following week or later in the fall of '71?
I've noticed that not many markets are airing new or first-run syndicated shows and most are
sticking with the same lineup. So far, here's what is being scheduled in Hawaii as of September

Notice the lack of many syndicated programs. The Dr. Oz Show and Steve Harvey are
COMPLETELY gone from this market, after both airing on KNDO. Those are huge losses. We are
also missing several other syndicated programs and the other two trash talk shows, Jerry
Springer and Maury (thank god).

Isn't WSB getting The FABLife at 2:05 am (with Meredith Vieira moving to WUPA; she should've
went to WAGA at 1:00 pm)?
WSB also has "Just For Laughs Gags" Sunday nights at 12:35 am (replacing the repeat of station-

Not many changes. Can only find one new show, Crime Watch Daily. Also, both 29&8 and Fox 32
air Shepherd's Chapel at the same time still. 29&8 also still airs Dr. Oz twice.

Not a typo, there really was a show with this title -- a sort of animated take off of the "Odd
Couple" featuring a dog that was a slob and a neatnik cat that lived together as roommates, as I
recall.
This era gave us a lot of animated versions of primetime shows, of which this was just one.

"Dolly!" the Dolly Parton show from 1976 (not the ABC flop from 1987) was the same way. Only
produced for 1976-77 season, but it was regular rerun fair in the early 80s.

Commercial TV was still in its infancy, operating limited daily schedules (which remained limited
for several years to come because of World War II) and for the most part depending on young
and relatively little known performers. Joan Edwards married an extremely wealthy man and
became a major philanthropist before her passing at the age of 88 in 2006. BurlIves. of course,
became a recordig star and successful actor after the Second World War.

later, but on radio; she was the featured female singer on "Your Hit
Parade" during Frank Sinatra's first tenure on that show (1943). The
hysterical screaming for Ol' Blue Eyes by teenage girls in the audience
Groan For Joan Clubs," probably meant more as sarcasm as anything else.
She had two television shows: "Girl About Town," which may be the
show you have listed under "Joan Edwards," in 1941, and a 15-minute
in 1948 but without Ms. Edwards.) Ironically, she once wrote a song
If you can find it, there's a picture of her rehearsing for a "Your Hit Parade"

In 1941, experimental calls may still have been assigned to TV broadcasters in New York City.
W2XBS, W2XBC and W2XBT for NBC. W2XAB and W2XCB for CBS.

I once knew someone who owned an old RCA TV with a channel 1 (his mother owned an
antiques shop). He said it was originally owned by an army officer who bought it during WW2. It
still worked (this was 30 years ago), though the lights dimmed a bit when it was turned on.

"In 1941, experimental calls may still have been assigned to TV broadcasters in New York City.

Definitely so until July 1 of that year. That was the day the FCC started handing out commercial
licenses to TV stations, and WNBT and WCBW got the first ones, with a few more (WPTZ in Philly,
WRGB in the Capital District) getting their commercial tickets in the months to come. DuMont
got its transmitter up and running in the spring of 1941 along with CBS and NBC, but wasn't
given a full commercial license (as WABD) until 1944.
The old Channel 1 running from 50 to 56 mHz disappeared from the airwaves in the spring of
1946 when the original channel was re-assigned to police and amateur services and WNBT (its
only commercially licensed occupant anywhere) was re-assigned to the new Channel 4 and
WABD got moved upstairs to channel 5.. Another Channel 1 at 44-50 mHz was put in the
assignment tables by the FCC for small town, lower power community stations, like an early
version of LPTV, but it was scrapped in 1948 without any such community station ever signing
on.
think the only FCC license ever granted for Channel 1 in the post-war years was to KARO in
Riverside, California but never reached the air, so it was not reassigned to one of the other VHF
channels (KARO probably would have been reassigned to Channel 3 had it gone on the air, given
that Los Angeles was assigned Channels 2, 4, 5, 7, 9, 11, and 13 and San Diego/Tijuana
eventually got Channels 6, 8, 10, and 12).
IIRC, KARO and WSBE South Bend were granted CPs for Channel 1, but neither went on the air.
WSBE eventually became WSBT-TV Channel 22.
And Riverside is too close to LA to have been assigned Channel 3. I think it was reserved for the
Tijuana area back in the early '50s as well.

Given that all the San Diego stations operate with antennae conforming to a Zone 1 station,
wouldn't there have been room to assign Channel 3 to the San Diego market as well? Any
transmitter would have been a good 90=100 miles from Mt. Wilson, and 190 miles from Santa
Barbara...

Because Tijuana did, though it took many years before the station finally signed on (late 1990s, if
memory serves.)
The problem was real-world propagation: KEYT's Broadcast Peak site, on the coast just west of
Santa Barbara, is a good 70 miles closer to SD/Tijuana than the KSBY and KCOY sites. And while
the KSBY/KCOY sites are fairly well terrain-blocked from the South Coast, KEYT has a monster
line-of-sight signal down the coast that's usually heavily augmented by the near-constant tropo
ducting that runs from Santa Barbara down to San Diego. It's not unusual at all to hear Santa
Barbara signals (especially the monsters on 103.3 and 97.5) blowing down the coast into San
Diego, and my understanding is that KEYT was regularly seen in Orange and San Diego counties
in the analog era, too.
Even if 3 San Diego could have been fully-spaced on paper to KEYT, it would have been a real-
world disaster, with San Diego wiping out KEYT on its home turf and vice-versa.
IIRC, KARO and WSBE South Bend were granted CPs for Channel 1, but neither went on the air.
WSBE eventually became WSBT-TV Channel 22.
Hate to bump an old thread, but upon further review, WSBE on Channel 1 may be an urban
legend. The only pre-freeze South Bend station I can find (courtesy of the Old Gringo's
basement) is one from WSBT on Channel 13 on 12/22/1947. No call letters were assigned that I
can see, but it was unofficially called WSBT-TV in articles mentioning that a relay facility between
Toledo and Chicago would have also been located at that facility. This relay was desired (and
maybe financed -- Balaban & Katz/WBKB and Tribune/WGN-TV are specifically mentioned) by
the Chicago stations so they could get network access. Listings into 1949 show it as an
application, rather than a granted CP, for Channel 13.
The 8/13/51 issue of Broadcasting Magazine shows that an application from WSBT to change
from Channel 13 to 34 (that was allowed during the freeze? I didn't even know the UHF channels
had even been allocated yet). No call letters as yet, but of course it went on the air as WSBT-TV.
So as far as I can see, no CP for Channel 1 was ever applied for by the South Bend Tribune or
anyone else in that city.
And Riverside is too close to LA to have been assigned Channel 3. I think it was reserved for the
Tijuana area back in the early '50s as well.
This is apparently the only commercial CP for Channel 1 ever assigned, and even then, the FCC
tried to get them to apply for the LA allocations 9 or 13, which they never did AFAIK. The CP for
KARO Channel 1 was cancelled in 1949.
...however, Santa Maria wouldn't get Channel 12 until it was freed up from Fresno's KFRE-TV in
1961...
This is a pre-war listing. There were no commercial stations above Channel 4 before 1946. The
1945 Broadcasting Yearbook shows the following commercial stations, along with another dozen
and a half experimental stations:
New York: WNBT (1), WCBW (2), WABD (4) -- moved to current Channels 4, 2, and 5, respectively,
in 1946.
Chicago: WTZR (1 - CP), WBKB (2) -- moved to current Channels 2 and 4, respectively in 1946.
WTZR never operated commercially (it was always W9XZV on-air), and Ch. 4 (as WBBM-TV) took
over Channel 2 in 1953.
Los Angeles: KTSL (1 - CP) -- moved to current Channel 2 in 1946, and received its commercial
license in 1948. At the time, it was W6XAO.
Milwaukee: WMJT (3 - CP) -- signed on current Channel 3 in 1947 as WTMJ-TV, and moved to
Channel 4 in 1953.
Schenectady: WRGB (3) -- stayed put, but channel number changed from 3 to 4 in 1946, and
moved to Channel 6 in 1954.
The only thing close to a real network at the time was NBC, with WNBT NYC, WPTZ Philly, and
WRGB Schenectady airing what little network programming there was during the war. Dumont
did some experimental networking between WABD New York and then-W3XWT Washington as
well.
...however, Santa Maria wouldn't get Channel 12 until it was freed up from Fresno's KFRE-TV in
1961...
And even then, the original proposal was to put channel 12 in Santa Barbara, not Santa Maria:
http://www.uhftelevision.com/articles/deintermix.html
That would have caused much the same problem as Scott Fybush outlined in post #11,
methinks.WNBT Channel 1 (NBC)
...are there any known surviving kinescopes of WNBT on Channel 1 or W2XWB on Channel 4, or
did kinescopes not even exist that early?...

There wasn't even a television transmission standard, much less kinescopes. And kinnies were
"invented" to allow the networks to grow without waiting for AT&T to interconnect every station
via microwave; the nets weren't even thinking in terms of that yet, given how few stations were
on the air, period, in 1941.

I thought the 525/30 standard was mandated as of July 1941 in order to get a commercial
license.

I wonder if this BBC-TV transmission received in New York in 1938 was the first kinescope -- 405
line/25 pps British standard, of course. Not sure of the frequency, but their Channel 1 was 45.00
MHz video and 41.5 MHz audio, both AM.
https://archive.org/details/BbcTelev...InNewYork-1938
I thought the 525/30 standard was mandated as of July 1941 in order to get a commercial
license.
You're right, Keith ... the 525-line standard was approved by the FCC April 30, 1941. My mind
was confusing the issue with the decision to rescind the February 28, 1940 441-line standard
(less than three months later, on May 27) and returning television to experimental status,
because RCA jumped the gun in promoting commercial television and angered the FCC in the
process.
DuMont wanted a 625-line standard from the very start and the FCC called the 525-line system a
"compromise" between the RCA and DuMont systems.

The FCC, wanting to be fair to both NBC and CBS, granted commercial licenses to their NYC
stations starting the same day, July 1, 1941. Apparently NBC got a leg up on CBS by signing on an
hour before normal on that day. So we can say that WNBT was the first commercially licensed TV
station in America. And it also broadcast the first TV commercial, a ticking watch with the words
"Bulova Watch Time" seen on the screen as we could read the time from the watch.
NBC's NYC station already had a daily schedule in 1939, even as an experimental station, to
coincide with the RCA exhibit at the 1939 World's Fair. But CBS had already done some TV shows
as early as 1931, featuring Kate Smith and George Gershwin, although that was using an older TV
system. And General Electric, on the station that became WRGB Schenectady, is credited with
broadcasting the first TV drama, when it televised a community theater play in 1928. That was
only a few years after WGY Radio got its commercial license.
So TV really wasn't that far behind radio. But WWII really slowed down the development of
television. Lots of people were buying radios in the 1920s but it wasn't till 1950, or at least the
late 40s, before some families had a TV in the home. My dad says he and his friends would go to
a bar to watch sporting events on TV several years before his family had a TV of their own.

Actually, CBS had announced a week before that their sign-on time was going to be 2:30pm and
NBC, 2:00pm. So even though NBC did sign on a half-hour earlier, the CBS sign-on time was not
"before normal".

Wikipedia has another version of how NBC beat CBS on the air on July 1, 1941. It says CBS was
having trouble getting on the air on that day...
>>>The NBC and CBS stations were licensed and instructed to sign on simultaneously on July 1 so
that neither of the major broadcast companies could claim exclusively to be "first." However,
WCBW did not manage to sign on the air until 2:30 p.m., one full hour after WNBT. As a result,
WNBC inadvertently holds the distinction as the oldest continuously operating commercial
television station in the United States.<<<
But then Wikipedia gets confused by saying WNBT started with the Star Spangled Banner at
1pm. So that would mean WNBC had a 90 minute head start on WCBS-TV.

It's Wikipedia, known for in many cases almost (but not quite) getting the facts straight. This is
what happens when you create an encyclopedia that the users can edit if they think they know
better than the facts.
You have no idea how many Wikipedia entries I have fixed for various radio stations and for
defunct UHF stations. One entry I had to clean up had an "edit" from someone listing the titles of
newscasts a station would have used if it hadn't gone dark. That's a fact?
The announcement of sign-on times was published in Broadcasting the last week of June, 1941. I
base my statement on that and will not stand down for a Wikipedia quote.

The big TV news on this date was on the front page: Six Million Dollar Man finds priceless corpse
in amusement park.
Surprised to see Green Bay listings across the lake in the Ludington MI paper. Would the over-
water path make fringe reception better than usual?
In the very early days of TV (prior to Michigan going EDT and WGTU signing on), Mason County
may have been in the Green Bay market. Same with Manistee County to the north. Channels 2,
5, and 11 were carried on Charter in Ludington until early 2009. Milwaukee stations were
dropped earlier. Manistee lost GB stations (and WZZM) in the early 1990s (Manistee and
Ludington, although both served by Charter now, used to be served by different cable providers
[Ludington came from Bresnan while Manistee and points north and east (Cadillac, Traverse City,
etc.) came from Cable Michigan]). Also, for years, Ludington didn't have local ABC WGTU or any
WB/CW affiliate on cable.
Note that all of these stations (except WGVC) have the exact same calls nearly 40 years later!
Another note is that a few Green Bay radio stations have had listeners on the Michigan side of
Lake Michigan (most notably 99.7 Sturgeon Bay when it was Wild 99.7 in the mid 2000s)

Note: Although the Union also listed the VHFs from Los Angeles plus KCET/28, I am only listing
the San Diego stations here, because the font and size they chose is hard enough to read in the
first place. They even listed KEYT/3 in Santa Barbara, which was viewable in much of the coastal
region of San Diego County due to the signal path being a straight line over the Pacific Ocean.

Just for the heck of it, NBC's baseball games that week were Cardinals at Cubs, with Gowdy and
Kubek('A' game), or Pirates at Expos, with Jim Simpson and Sandy Koufax.('B' Game) In those
days, every market saw the 'A' game, except for the cities whose were actually playing in it, so I
would guess that game aired in SD that week.

That's certainly a good rationale for an educated guess. Maybe the games weren't set at press
time and that's why the Union didn't list them.
I notice in the morning that CBS follows ET while ABC and NBC follow CT. This date was also the
start of the new Saturday morning line-ups. Of note, 7 AM offering on XETV is absent (the Jerry
Lewis cartoon from ABC). Was this an omission or was 7:30 when XETV started the day's
operations?
Re ABC and NBC following a different time pattern: It was obviously a network decision since the
airtimes are the same on channels 3, 4, and 7 from the northerly direction. Perhaps some kind of
accommodation for MT stations? I'm guessing here.
Re XETV: It was the latter. XETV was not a 24/7 operation in 1973 and for reasons unknown to
anyone had a 7:30am sign-on time seven days a week, as noted in the other schedule postings.

By the way, the Miss America pageant aired in San Diego at 7 p.m. Pacific Daylight Time! Yes, it
was a national broadcast!

That choice of football game for ABC is real odd: Grambling and Morgan State are both
traditionally black colleges and the only time those schools usually get national coverage is the
Grambling/Southern game late in the season. Why was this game chosen?

I would suggest that you've asked 44 years too late to get an answer to that question.

This came up on 'The 506 Forums', a site that discusses sports on TV, past and present, a few
years ago. A user going by the handle 'tvnut' said:
There were several reasons. First, it allowed ABC to burn off a Division I-AA requirement in the
contract, hitting the entire country with a I-AA game early in the season. Second, it was
Grambling, which had never been seen on national television (regionals, I'm not sure of), and
that allowed Roone Arledge, ABC's sports supremo, to tout that beforehand. Third, it was two
black schools, which had traditionally been ignored on TV despite sending hundreds of players to
the pros over the years (especially in the era when the SEC was white-only).
The game got the publicity Arledge expected, and, I'd guess, a large audience.
AFAIK, ABC did not televise that matchup again, and settled on more 'white schools' to fulfill that
requirement for one lower-division game a year.

Nothing to do with MT stations, as they got the New York feed and did with it what they wanted
to--or could--do. Which often meant a 6:00 MT start (8:00 ET).
Saturday morning network kidvid on the left coast feed began at 7:00 or 8:00 PT, depending on
the network.
AFAIK, ABC did not televise that matchup again, and settled on more 'white schools' to fulfill that
requirement for one lower-division game a year.
Apparently they used Division II or even III games to satisfy that requirement. I swore I
remembered reading about ABC broadcasting a Division III game many years ago, and look what
I just found. How ABC got snookered into such a requirement is, as KM Richards pointed out,
probably lost to the ages.

Main reason why this game would have been aired is that "back in the day" most college football
teams did not begin their season until the third week of September. The 11-game regular season
schedule had been adopted only in the previous season, and there were still quite a few schools
that still played only ten regular season games. HBCU's, then as now, were looking to promote
their product any way that they could, even it meant moving a game between two Louisiana
schools to New York City.

Forgive my ignorance, not being anything even remotely close to a sports junkie of any kind, but
what's a "HBCU"?

That's the way it was listed in the newspaper, but given the proximity to Uncle Waldo (obviously,
a half-hour of Jay Ward cartoons under the syndicated umbrella title Uncle Waldo's Cartoon
Show) at 3:00, I would presume it was a second half-hour of Jay Ward cartoons under the
syndicated umbrella title Rocky and his Friends.
Note: December 11th was the day that WITI (6), WCGV (24), and WDJT (58) made their affiliation
changes; WITI from CBS to Fox, WCGV from Fox to independent (but would join UPN at its
launch about a month later), and WDJT from indie to CBS.
Also, I omitted the following stations that were listed in the paper: WAR-43, W46AR (now WYTU-
63), WJJA-49 (now WMLW), and Channel 55 (no call letters given, but it was pre-WPXE [Ion]). 43
and 49 were home shopping stations, while 46 was an Univision station (WYTU is currently
affiliated with Telemundo); the Sentinel only listed these stations on the prime-time grid anyway.
I also split the listings into two parts--VHF stations (4, 6, 10, 12), and the UHFs (18, 24, 30, 36, 58,
65)

I'm surprised to see the DDR channels carrying a relatively acceptable programming, with even
some British films and American music.

DDR 2 usually aired a movie from the capitalist countries but of course there was censorship. But
especially on holidays East Germans were in for a treat on TV. Even erotic shows were aired. A
reason why man from the West would tune in to DDR 1

They kinda had to, since most of East Germany could easily get West German TV (and vice versa).
East German programmers quickly realized non-stop propoganda would lose viewers, so they'd
put on both foreign exports and general entertainment. Some East German programs (children's
shows, vintage films, opera) actually got good response from critics and viewers in West
Germany. Interestingly enough, the parts of East Germany that couldn't get Western TV were
more dissatisfied with their lives than the rest of the country.

In the late 1980's it was even encouraged to form Central Antennas so that people around
Dresden could recieve ARD, ZDF and the commercial stations. Everyone except the really die-
hard communists watched Western TV. On Rgen they had no West-German TV either but they
could recieve Fjernsynet and TV2 Bornholm from Denmark.

As good a place as any to ask: Eduardo, what are American shows that have been especially
popular in Argentina? I ask because one time I got an Argentinian magazine on EBay. The
subject? One of the actresses from "Eight is Enough" and her newborn daughter.

Interesting that in 1992, TV in Buenos Aires was still showing the Three Stooges and Get Smart.
There is a lot of news, which is good. Is ATC 24 a 24 hour cable news channel and ATC 7 (over the
air) simply simulcasts several newscasts? I've seen that done in other countries. And for a while,
U.S. stations were running CNN Headline News, especially overnight, to add some news to their
schedules.
I also saw that Channel 11 calls itself "Telefe," which I thought might be owned and programmed
by the Catholic Church, since fe is faith in Spanish. Channel 11 in San Juan, Puerto Rico, is owned
by the Church and runs a mix of religious shows and family entertainment. But this channel
seems to run all general interest programs, despite the name.
Also interesting that Channel 7 runs Italian shows from 3 to 6am. I know Buenos Aires has a large
Italian population. And this publication even lists each channel's "test pattern" before the
channel signs on for the day.

The most everlasting American shows in Argentina are, without boubts, The Simpsons, Three
Stooges, ALF, The Nanny, Get Smart and Zorro.
The Simpsons is currently the only American show of which news episodes are premiered on
OTA TV (but most people prefer to watch those on FOX anyways), while Zorro was shown
weekdays on Channel 13 for more than a decade until two months ago.

Curiously, The Three Stooges still run on Buenos Aires TV: weekdays at 6:30 AM on Amrica
(channel 2). ATC 24 was just the name for ATC news programmes, now known as Visin Siete.
The name Telefe actually means Televisin Federal, and the station was owned by Editorial
Atlntida since 1990 until the late 90s when it was bought by Telefnica, a Spanish phone
company.

In 1990 TeleMatch was already ancient. I'm from 1978 and I never heard of it...
Telematch was the name used to sell the programme internationally. I don't know its German
name but here's a link to Deustche Welle rights-selling flyer if you're interested, maybe you
recognize the programme: http://www.dw.com/popups/pdf/29687835/telematch.pdf
And I guess Tinelli stole the name for Videomatch and then Showmatch when he switched
channels.
It's curious because Videomatch already existed in 1991! But it was only Monday to Friday (it
was Monday to Sunday in 1990). I don't know if they were uh, "inspired" on Telematch but one
cannot unsee the similarities.

It's odd seeing He-Man and She-Ra in primetime :P Tele 5 was owned by Silvio Berlusconi, right?

Old Tele 5 was indeed owned by Silvio Berlusconi. It aired from 1988 to 1992. Tele 5 returned to
the screen in 2002 but is now not owned by Berlusconi. It is now owned by Tele Mnchen
Gruppe. A co-owner of old Tele 5.

Excellent schedule, you even bothered to include the English TV schedules! Were they received
in the Netherlands by cable?
In the West it was possible to recieve BBC, Anglia, TV South and Channel 4 by cable. In the East it
was not possible until 1990. By then RTL Veronique and RTL+ had replaced the commercial
broadcasters from the UK. In the Southwest you could easily recieve TF1 and Antenne 2 by aerial
and cable.

51 likely aired Wheel and Jeopardy so it would be cleared in Gainesville, as WESH served as the
NBC affiliate for that area and WJXT from Jacksonville was the CBS affiliate (and probably didn't
have Wheel and Jeopardy in Jacksonville)
The reason why those PBS stations had their start times off was probably because it was during a
pledge drive.
In kids programming...isn't that nice. At least they could have just done it during nighttime
programming.

How did Ch. 62 manage to run "CBS Sunday Morning" and "Face the Nation" at 8 and 9:30 AM
ET, respectively? "CBS Sunday Morning" isn't fed until 9 AM ET. I've never known there to be an
early feed of those shows for the Eastern Time Zone.

WJBK did the same thing that our WAGA (Atlanta) did back then--black out the entire CBS
Saturday morning schedule up to their switch to Fox.

One odd thing: WDIV aired WCW wrestling... and on Saturday morning? Seems out of place for a
Big Three affiliate, and an unusual time slot, too. I always knew that TBS and TNT carried WCW
programs until the promotion folded, but I had no idea that WCW was even syndicated to local
broadcast stations other than what was then WTBS.

NWA/WCW aired on WPIX(pre WB / CW) ch. 11 from 1987-91, then moved to WCBS (CBS) ch. 2
late Saturday nights / Sunday mornings 12:35am from 1991-97, then moved to WWOR (UPN) ch.
9 airing on Sunday's at noon from 1997-2000 then ending up at midnight on WLNY (Indy) ch. 55
until the WWE bought WCW in March 2001.
Also for a brief time WNBC (NBC) ch. 4 aired NWA Worldwide in the spring/summer 1990.

I recently looked at some '80s Detroit/Toledo listings, and WJBK carried WWF wrestling
Saturdays at 11am for a number of years, bumping-off the final two hours of CBS' Saturday
morning lineup. Some of those shows either aired the next week on delay or not cleared at all.
I can't remember when WCW started offering syndicated shows, although it may have been not
long after the ownership transition from the Crockett family to Turner Broadcasting. I do
remember back to at least 1992 that WCW was airing a syndicated show; KCAL here in Los
Angeles carried WCW on Saturday mornings for a couple of years until the shows moved
elsewhere or were cancelled. WCW Worldwide (their last syndicated show before they folded)
aired here on KTTV Saturday afternoons at 4pm.

Television seemed very high-brow and educational back then. It's a shame there wasn't any late
night or morning programming.

On Sunday TV was indeed very educational and highbrow. However on Friday and Saturday there
was more room for entertainment. This is BTW typical for Northern Europe. In Scandinavia and
Germany you would have the same.

What you're trying to tell me was that WWOR became a sister station to WNYW. Thus creating a
duopoly between those two stations.

Hey crainbebo/VHSgoodiesWA,
and
Been really busy (especially with all of the new material I've acquired from Texas and are putting
on my channel), but will post Sunday listings soon.
"Little Darlings" (12 Midnight, ch. 44) was partially filmed in our city of Atlanta. The scene of
Kristy McNichol's character coming off the bus to greet her mom was filmed in the parking lot
behind what was the Atlanta Journal-Constitution building.
