Though it wasn't so listed in TV GUIDE, Channel 18 Milwaukee's 4PM telecast of "Super Heroes" was in color. The station had recently been bought by WKY in Oklahoma and had just
installed color equipment. It was the first step towards "prestige" for a seat-of-the-pants operation that had been languishing at the bottom of the ratings since 18 signed on as an independent station in 1959.

Just curious as to whether you'd know which color film chains were bought by what later became Gaylord Broadcasting for use at WVTV - GE PE-240's (which, along with the live studio color 4-plumbicon PE-250, were introduced in spring 1966) or RCA TK-27's?
