Just a couple of notes:

This was during the period when KTVO (ABC) in Kirksville was broadcasting from its ill-fated 2,000-foot tower near Colony, Mo. The tower collapsed just a few months later in the summer.

During this period, KHQA and WHBF were both running CBS late-night programming on a one-day delay at 11PM. In the late '80s, most CBS affiliates that delayed CBS late-night programming did it on a one-week delay so they could have the programs on the same nights of the week that CBS promoted them on. On this particular day, there was obviously network coverage of the Illinois primary. WHBF pre-empted its 10:30 syndicated show (don't remember what that was now) to air the coverage, while KHQA delayed it till 11:00. WMBD didn't carry "CBS Late Night" during this period.

Minor missprint. WQAD should be listed as ABC.
