A few questions: At what point did WSMW-TV 27 (later WHLL, now WUNI) in Worcester, MA sign on, and when did TV Guide's Western New England edition start carrying their listings?
 
I'm surprised that WWLP - 22 didn't have an 11PM newscast---Can that be right?

As a kid, I recall seeing Channel 27 show up in the Western New England edition of TV Guide in 1972. It was intriguing because the station could not be received over the air even with a rooftop antenna & rotor where I lived in Enfield, CT. Later on, when attending high school, I had friends in other parts of Enfield (namely the Hazardville section) who were able to pull in Channel 27 with a rooftop antenna.
