Well, MarkD told me that I forgot the WXNE 25 listings! :mad:
 
WXNE was from another date back in the fall of 1982 - I do not have the exact date you had - BUT this still gives eevryone a GOOD idea of what WXNE looked like at the time. NH did not include WXNE back then because most cable systems still included WSMW. Once WSMW went Preview SYV most of the day, WXNE was put in its place and moved into the NH TV Guide

I think you forgot Evening Magazine at 7:30.

:eek: that's right! it was on, indeed! It featured segments on bats, and a low-cost health camp.
 
WXNE had daily mass at 1130 weekdays after the 700 Club from the early 80's until Fox bought them of at which time it moved to 930 AM. They did not run Jimmy Swaggart or Another Life twice in the morning. My listing was a different date from the one you gave.
 
RBW,

NO WXNE was NOT included in the NH edition of TV Guide yet, so that is why you did not include it - I assume. By the time I came to the area in 1985, WXNE was in the NH edition of TV Guide while TV 27 WSMW Worcester was not. I believe WSMW 27 Worcester dumped all free over the air entertainment for Preview Subscription TV from like 10 AM on, retaining only the religious shows and some public affiars shows maybe. I believe they did this early in 1983. I believe it was then that the NH edition of TV Guide added Channel 25 and dropped TV 27.

Also for everyone else by the way, WSMW did reinstate daytime entertainment programming by April (maybe shortly before) of 1985. They did duplicate shows on in the Boston market. Some syndicators allowed this while others would NOT. Some syndicators felt that Worcester was far enough to allow a station there to have their show. This tended to happen with barter shows.

On New Years Day of 1986 - WSMW was renamed WHLL. They went to a General Entertainment full time and continued to duplicate some Boston programming for about 9 months. Then in the Fall of 1986, the station stopped duplicating programs from Boston stations and began trying to position themselves as a Boston Station. They attempted a format with mostly old movies and drama off network shows and maybe a couple off network sitcoms. In 1987 when WQTV dumped ABC and NBC shows preempted by WCVB and WBZ TV, WHLL picked that stuff up. WHLL did not do well as a general entertainment independent and began to rely more on paid programming. Then in 1992, they added Spanish Programming from Telemundo part-time and at some point went full time with Spanish programming eventually switching to Univision which they are today.
