Did they use any material from "PM Magazine" south of the border? Were they anything like "PM Magazine"? Odd that they named the show as such, even though no one in Canada aired "PM Magazine", besides the US border stations.

> Noon Flintstones

Noontime tradition on CTV (and, in French, TQS), into the 1990s.

> 7:30 Snow Job

A sitcom about a ski resort, taped in Montreal; one of the worst CTV programs of all time, which lasted a couple of years.

Kind of interesting that the CBC showed alot of American programs back then.

Apparently, CICC passed up this CTV program. A private station at the time, CKOS probably clared some CTV shows passed up by CICC.

I this this was the 1980 version from Vancouver -- the new, Hollywood-based version wouldn't start until fall.

Twice a day? Glutton for punisment, I take it.

Also, did Brandon have a CKY repeater at the time? If not, CKS probably also had some CTV shows on the schedule. But if CKY was OTA in Brandon at the time, they probably cleared what CKY didn't clear.

How good was the North Dakota signals on Cable Regina? Was reception and/or choice the motivation for the switch?

Back in the days when CBC knew how to lure people away from other channels without airing HNiC. Talk about taking advantage of a situation.

> Noon Midday (local show, I assume?)
--------
My guess is that CICC simulcast the CKOS broadcast of Midday. Twin-sticks were known to do that for news - I believe Mid-Canada did that as well between their CBC and CTV stations in Northern Ontario.

Also, what did CBKT call their evening newscast at the time? What about CBKST, which had separate news at the time?

Was CBKT still known as CBC 9, or were they CBC Regina by then?

Saskatchewan was in for big changes in another three years, with the addition of STV in Regina and Saskatoon (CFRE and CFSK, respectively), and CIPA (CTV) in Prince Albert. Before CIPA was on the air, did CKBI air any CTV programming, or did their cablesystem carry QC8?<P ID="signature">______________

Brandon did have CTV by this point- CKYB signed on in 1972. This was a joint venture between CKX and CKY to bring CTV to Western Manitoba.

In 1985, when I was there, they were known as CBC 9/4 (4 being both the transmitter in Moose Jaw and the cable position in Regina. The "9" had a outlined "4" in the middle.

Watch for a 1988 Southern Saskatchewan sked with STV listings soon.

QC8 was carried on cable in Prince Albert (Saskatoon being only about 130km away). CIPA signed on in 1987. CKBI/CIPA was 100% owned by Shamrock Television Systems (owners of the Yorkton twin-stick). Don't know if CKBI aired any CTV shows or not.

Actually, "Hangin' In" was a CBC-produced show. It had a brief syndication run in the United States in 1987.

No clue about CBKT/CBKST; the only 2 I know from my visit in '85 is that CKTV's was called CKTV Newservice and CJFB's was Newsline (With Joe Cocker's Steppin' Out as its news music!)
