Yeah, but it could be the "Crossroads" show from Canada that would become the daily "100 Huntley Street" program in 1977. And if it is, I'm sure David Mainse must've tried hard to get any U.S. stations to carry it.

Possible, or it could have been a local
program of some kind that aired on both
11 and 46. I can't imagine 11 putting a
religious program between a block of
public-affairs programs and a double-feature
movie, so I'm still guessing that 11's was a
local thing, and 46's was the Canadian program
you mentioned (Pat Robertson may have been
an easy sell for the Canadian you mentioned).

Frankly, I remember absolutely nothing about
either station's Crossroads so I'm making an
educated guess as to what they were.
