11:30 Late Night with David Brinkley

That should be David LETTERMAN. I think you got it mixed up with ABC's THIS WEEK with David Brinkley.

I was puzzled by the thread title until I found out the "Kentucky New Era" is in the western part of the state. Though the question remains, why are Nashville stations being aired in Kentucky (I assume you can't get them OTA)? Why wouldn't cablers just use Louisville or Evansville stations?

The Kentucky New Era is from Hopkinsville, KY, which is 71 miles northwest of Nashville off I-24.

Did the New Era not carry listings for Paducah's WPSD-6? (Paducah is 72 miles northwest of Hopkinsville).

Though the question remains, why are Nashville stations being aired in Kentucky (I assume you can't get them OTA)? Why wouldn't cablers just use Louisville or Evansville stations?

probably easier to pick up. The Nashville Big 3 were (in analog) on 2,4,5 which would be easier to get. Looking at a tvfool for Bowling Green, KY an outdoor antenna still can get most Nashville stations.
