I remember growing up Hee Haw in Tallahassee being on WCTV 6. I see here it was not on WCTV. They must have added it pretty late. I wonder what year that was?
 
When did the Gulf Coast edition move east to include Channels 6 & 11? I remember in the late 70's this edition had Channels 4, 6 and 8 from New Orleans.

If the show was distributed via satellite, 5 and 12 should have carried the same episode as 13 and 18.
 
11:30
3-13-13-13b-18 (and WTBS as well) College Football: Tennessee-Mississippi State


I believe Channel 12 was supposed to be in this rotation - unless Channel 12 cloned itself. ;D

You're right, that should read ch 12...

IIRC, Hee Haw was on WTXL-27 in Tallahassee.
 
I remember 1992-1993 Hee Haw being on WCTV, even airing the Hee Haw Silver while WTXL had Star Trek TNG. Like I said, I didn't realize it was that late.
