Could you please post listings from that Toronto-Lake Ontario edition

5 KPIX-CBS San Francisco
8* KOLO-ABC/NBC/CBS Reno
10 KXTV-CBS Sacramento

5-8*-10 Captain Kangaroo (Bay Area viewers see the Captain making a conductor's hat and train tickets, while Reno and Sacto viewers see Mr. Green Jeans teach the Captain how to conduct a band)

Seems that someone is at least a day, or perhaps a week, behind. Strange,
because if KPIX 5 is taking the usual CBS left coast feed, so should KXTV 10
as Sacto was also linked by Telco line, according to AT&T maps in both the
Broadcasting Yearbooks and Radio Annuals on DE's site.

OTOH, KOLO 8 (Reno) may have been limited to microwave links and/or off-air
pickups from KPIX and/or KXTV, however that should mean the same show,
unless the link was not available at that time of day, resulting in a week-old
kinnie? But Sacto airing a different Captain than SFO?
 
The 1:25 PM newscast on 7, 7*, 11, and 13 is ABC.
Al Mann was anchor. I know that by July 1962 this
newscast was airing at 12:55 PM, cutting off the last
five minutes of "Camouflage"; Alex Dreier was anchoring
by that time.
