In late September of 2005, TV Guide had the magazine edition without the daytime listings.

Re: TV Guide
My in-laws subscribe to the Monroe Evening News, which has a TV listing section every Sunday.
It has a grid of stations that cover which channels that appear on Dish, DirecTV and many cable systems that cover different parts of the county.
But the grid makes no mention of over-the-air channels and subchannels, and none of the subchannel networks appear in the listings.

Re: TV Guide
It doesn't make any mention of OTA.
Fortunately, I have tvtv.us on my smartphones.
tvtv.us recently added Canada and the UK to its service.
If you want to be shocked, do a "Broadcast" listing for a small town in the UK, then a small town in USA, then a small town in Canada!

Re: TV Guide
This is highly surprising, especially since, IIRC, the Monroe Evening News does list OTA channels in their daily edition listings.innate-in-you wrote: ↑Fri Apr 26, 2019 11:33 amIt doesn't make any mention of OTA.

I didn't know about tvtv.us before your mention, so I checked it out.innate-in-you wrote: ↑Fri Apr 26, 2019 11:33 amIt doesn't make any mention of OTA.

The OTA list for Detroit is pretty bad. It is way way out of date in its listings of the many subs that have been added by local stations or services that have shifted to different channel designations. The Detroit OTA list is also cluttered with all the the Toledo stations in the mix, as well as Ontario ones well outside the range for normal reception by a Detroit area viewer.
After seeing this, I didn’t bother to see how accurate (or not) my Comcast listings might be.
A pass on tvtv for me.

Re: TV Guide
I remember the Radio stations and programs listed in the newspapers ! ;D
Re: TV Guide
While residing in the UP, we always found the Sunday Free Press TV Book the most useful.
TV Guide did not list CICO or CKCY/CHBX. Sometime after CKCY launched, they stopped listing CJIC.
The Detroit News book did not list WJMN, CKCY/CHBX, or CJIC.
One of our local drugstores gave out a free TV listings booklet covering Wisconsin plus the Marquette stations. Between this and the Freep's TV Book, we had all our stations covered. In the analog era, we could receive stations from Escanaba, Marquette, Wausau/Rhinelander, Green Bay, Traverse City/Cadillac, Sault Sainte Marie, and sometimes Milwaukee.
