The magazine listed foreign channels in Danish, so I've chosen not to list them here, but for the record, here's what other channels were listed:

East Germany
DDR1
DDR2

Norway
NRK

Sweden
SVT1
SVT2

UK
BBC (not sure as to what feed...the listings indicate that this carried news from both BBC Wales and BBC London & South East)

West Germany
ARD
ZDF
N3

Satellite
Arts Channel
FilmNet
MTV
Scansat TV3
Sky Channel
Super Channel
TV5 Europe
WorldNet
 
Channel 3 was on the air for just 1 hour 25 minutes?
 
Danish television used to have really short broadcast days, even by European standards of that time. Let me dust off my copy of Timothy Green's fascinating 1972 book The Universal Eye again:

"Danish television conducts, on its one channel, the limited television service that vanished in many countries in the 1950s. On weekdays the programmes are from 7.30 in the evening until 10.30, and Saturdays and Sundays there are afternoon programmes. But the total is only thirty-eight hours a week, including three hours of repeats on weekday afternoons for those who may have missed programmes the previous evening [...] The Danish approach to television is that it is something to be viewed after dinner in the evening, just as one might go to a theatre or concert, it is not conceived as visual muzak. 'My family and I would never watch television while we eat,' a Danish television producer told me. 'Danish families like to have their evening meal in peace and then, perhaps, see what is on.'"

However, most Danes could always pick up television from neighboring countries.
