If you're talking about KAYU-28, they didn't debut until October 31st, 1982. I'll have those listing for everybody to see in the next two weeks, since most of the listings were off microfiche from the Spokane Public Library.

Spokane's PBS station showing tennis from Louisville. (KY?) Was this shown on other PBS stations? Instructional programming in August? Granted this when students went to school after Labor Day.

Shouldn't this be "CBS Morning News" as GMA was/is an ABC program and they were not yet the ABC affiliate?
 
Spokane, August 8-14, 1976

For those who were curious to find out what happened in the first of the switch I've posted a new thread above.

I'll post a quick separate thread with the initial KAYU-TV weekday schedule from 1982.

I checked the listings in both the Spokesman-Review and the[Defunct]News-Chronicle. This was no joke. KXLY did air "GMA" beginning in Februray 1976 while KREM(At that time were owned by the Bullitt sisters of KING-5/Seattle fame) was giving the kiddies a lot of Warner Brother/Popeye/Little Rascals fare for breakfast. In fact they were the WITI/Milwaukee of Spokane at the time and the Bullitts were also glad to get CBS because they never wanted their stations with ABC at the time(see KGW/Portland and KING/Seattle, both former ABC affiliates).

BTW KXLY wasn't the only station that aired "GMA" before they joined ABC: WISN-12/Milwaukee also did this before their flip from CBS in March 1977.

The tennis program was in the listings of both the Spokesman Review and the[defunct]News-Chronicle, so this wasn't a typo. I'm not so sure if there was any other PBS station showing this, unless someone who kept a TV Guide from August 1976 also had a PBS station airing this.

As for the instructional programming I was told by someone who worked at the library that KSPS was usually off the air between noon and 3:30pm Monday through Friday during the Summer back in the 1970s, so those listings might have been left there in error.(KSPS BTW is owned by the Spokane Public Schools).

This is unusual but not unprecedented. From 1966 to 1971
WRAL/5 Raleigh/Durham carried the CBS Morning News even though
it was an ABC affiliate at the time. WTVD/11, CBS primary then
(two-station market until 1968), carried NBC's Today show. And
we've noted innumerable times that WRAL carried The Huntley-
Brinkley Report rather than ABC's newscast in the late '60s-
early '70s.
