A. KPTV, sometimes on Saturday afternoons during "Wonderful World of Disney" in the late 80s-early 90s (pre-UPN days.)

But if you mean anytime before that period, I honestly haven't a clue........

KATU is ABC, so I would say it was on there.

This is kinda hard because KATU, KLOR, KGW, and KPTV all were once ABC stations. But my guess is KLOR since the episodes date from the mid-50's.

I vote KLOR, as well, because KATU didn't sign on until the early 1960s.

Channel 44 in San Francisco. Right after Our Gang and right before Columbo...and if you styed up late enough, you could watch Dr. Gene Scott.

Man, I miss summers in San Francisco with my dad.

Davy Crockett's station was between the barracks and the chapel at The Alamo.

By Craig_adams on Friday, September 15, 2006 - 2:48 am: "KPTV channel 27 was Portland's DuMont affiliate with NBC as the primary network. KPTV at the time was also a CBS & ABC affiliate. This changed on October 15, 1953 when KOIN-TV began operation and took CBS as it's primary. Koin also divided up ABC with KPTV. ABC's Disneyland (Davy Crockett) was on Koin-TV."

That one sneaked up on me! I had no idea KOIN was ever anything but a straight CBS affiliate, at least after 1927. I also thought the show was on after KLOR went on the air.
