With the exception of Ch. 40, which also carried CBS,
I don't think any of the ABC affiliates would have dared
go head-to-head with CBS and NBC at 6:30 at that time.
WLOS was particularly successful running ABC News at 6;
they didn't move it to 6:30 until 1979, and for most of
those years their 6:30 show was "The Andy Griffith Show."
Given where WLOS is located, need I say more?
