RETRO: Phoenix AZ, Sunday December 4, 1949

I found the opening night schedule for KPHO-TV, from 5:30 pm until 10:00 pm signoff. It was the first television station in the entire state of Arizona. Source: Tucson Daily Citizen, 12/3/1949

5:30 Dedication Broadcast
6:20 The Philco Show
7:00 Central Arizona Light & Power Co. news
7:20 Plano Playhouse
7:30 This Show Business
8:00 Charlie Ruggles Show
8:30 Front Row Center
9:00 Fred Waring Show
 
No Ed Sullivan at 6? Ah, no Telco line yet.

The transcontinental link wasn't in place until September 1951, although I think the
left coast itself was Telco-connected a bit earlier than that.
