Interesting seeing NBC affiliates 2 and 6 airing Days of our Lives at 9:00am and Donahue at 12:30pm with Search for Tomorrow pushed back to 1:30pm. It's interesting to see how NBC stations switched things up airing soaps in the morning, mostly Santa Barbara. Also, the morning lineup of Bewitched at 11 followed by Voltron, Defender of the Universe at 11:30 were unusual programs pre-empting the ABC offerings at 11:00am-Noon on WVII 7.
 
WAGM still airs Wheel of Fortune in the same slot today. Interesting that the market didn't seem to carry Jeopardy! just yet. Of course, it now airs on WAGM at 7:30 after Wheel.

As for Portland, both shows now air on WMTW.

In addition, Bangor had neither Wheel nor Jeopardy! at this time. WAGM was a primary CBS affiliate, but aired ABC's superior morning show
