No, this can't be right.

This was during a time when WMAR-TV pre-empted Tonight, choosing instead to carry sitcoms in that hour -- which, in March 1987, would have been Benson (11:30) and WKRP in Cincinnati (Midnight). Which leads to...

> 11:30 Tonight Show (from NBC?)>

Yes, this is correct. WNUV replaced WBFF-TV as Carson's independent Baltimore home in the fall of '86, when WBFF carried Fox's Late Show with Joan Rivers.
