If anybody's wondering, this listing was 28 days before the sign-on of WDRB-TV, analog Ch. 41 (now digital Ch. 49, a charter Fox affiliate in 1986), Louisville's first independent TV station, hence no listing for them yet.

(WKLO-TV, analog Ch. 21, was a split ABC/DuMont affiliate that lasted only for a few months in 1953.)
