I loved "The Time Tunnel" that was a great show.
 
So did I, but why did you clip Ch. 10's schedule?
"Time Tunnel" was on ABC, which would put it on
Ch. 6 in Philadelphia.
 
If I live to be 100 I will never understand why any
ABC affiliate would run "Where The Action Is" in the
morning; I've found it in Norfolk, Orlando, Cincinnati,
and now Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. I know, they could
run more profitable shows at 4:30 (like Bungles And
His Friends in Norfolk), but just who would be watching
"Action" in the morning? Seems they'd have been better
off pre-empting the show.
 
Forgive me if this question had been asked before but what exactly was the purpose of "The Keystone Network"?

Some years back on another site I remember someone mentioning that back in the 60s and 70s, WLYH, WHP and WSBA could not be seen outside their main cities ( Example..WHP couldn't be picked up in Lebanon for example even though there wasn't much in terms of distance between Harrisburg and Lebanon..thats why WLYH was CBS as was WHP ). Ah..I am not sure if I buy that. I believe even back then ( 1966 ) WSBA could reach Baltimore but not Harrisburg? Odd

I know back in the early 80s when all three were still with CBS, I had no trouble at all getting both WLYH and WSBA in Northern Virginia. Not the best but still watchable. WHP OTOH...tough catch unless their next door neighbor ( Washington's WDCA-TV channel 20 ) would be off the air.
