> TVG didn't list WCLF 22-Clearwater, WBHS-50 Tampa, or
> WSWF-WB cable(?) affiliate in Fort Myers/Naples

WSWF was a low-powered WB station in Naples, which broadcasted on ch.10, along the way, it switched to UPN after swapping networks with WTVK ch.46, since The WB wanted full-powered and cable outlets. Also, it eventually added WEVU ch.7 (the low-powered Fort Myers station, no connection with WZVN) to its coverage area and moved its ch.10 (or ch.7?) signal to ch.4.

It was after its acquisition of ch.7 that it was finally listed in TV Guide. Before then, TVG didn't even acknowledge its existence (other than the WB and UPN ads).

> Morning
> 5:00
> 32 Heywood Henson

Country DJ who had his long-running country video show on 32. After Hearst's acquisition of 32 later that year, he was relegated to weekends. And soon after Pax started up, he moved his weekly show to WXPX ch.66.

> 8:30
> 46 Adventures of Dudley the Dragon

I thought this was strictly a PBS program, since ch.3 carried this later on in the day?

> 9:00
> 38 Infomercials

Prior to becoming WB in 1998, ch.38 carried alot of these, especially on Sundays.

> Late Night
> Midnight
> 38 Greyhound Racing Highlights

I think this was Derby Lane's nightly racing show, "Post Time". Derby Lane is a greyhound track in St. Pete, practically the "Churchill Downs" of greyhound racing.

When Derby lane had no race, ch.38 showed an infomercial here.

> 1:30
> 38 Chuck Harder
>
This was the video version of his "For The People" radio show.

Prior to ch.38 becoming WB, they used to run continuous feeds of the "For The People" radio show in the SAP audio feed.

> 2:30
> 32 Music Videos

Even though ch.32 gave up on its full-time video format in the late-1980s, they still ran music videos in late-night and the all-night "Mike Paschelli Show" (featuring Mike and his band) on weekends.

But Mike and the music videos would be pink-slipped by fall, when Hearst takes over the station.<P ID="edit"><FONT class="small">Edited by rugrats1 on 12/08/05 02:41 AM.</FONT></P>

That's what I thought too- WEDU was a co-producer in later years of the series; maybe WTVK made a deal with WSFP?
