I think it would be less than another three months before KLJB returned to the Fox affiliation after the popularity of the Simpsons (they had been an original Fox affiliate from late '86 until their affiliation was yanked in either '87 or '88 over too many preemptions, despite Fox only programming Sunday nights first and then Saturday nights starting at least in the fall of '87).

Thanks for the KLJB and WRSP listings from 6/11/90. Brings back memories (I actually grew up within range of the Peoria and Quad Cities markets along the Peoria County-Knox County border area in western Illinois, but occasionally in the evenings or high trop periods Springfield, Decatur and Quincy/Hannibal stations would appear semi-regularly if conditions favored the south, which was common during 1990-91--I think that was a prime year for trop and DX on TV and radio at that time). A lot of classic TV shows at that time during the daytime on the Fox stations (before first the influx of particularly trash talk shows later in the '90s and then all the court shows today).

Since it appears you obtained your listings from the old Western Illinois edition of TV Guide, do you also have listings for WYZZ-43 (the Fox affiliate for Peoria/Bloomington, licensed to Bloomington), plus the former KJMH-26 Burlington, IA in its standalone Fox days (which is now KGCW-26, the CW affiliate for the Quad Cities after serving as a translator for KLJB after being bought out in the mid-90s)? Also some areas of western Illinois, particularly in parts of the Quad City market, still received WFLD-32 Chicago on cable in 1990, so they were listed in the Western Illinois edition of TV Guide until local editions were discontinued two years ago.

They're a little older, from 1987, but include local listings for all the channels listed in the Western Illinois edition of TV Guide.
