My assumption would be that the archive of "Radio Mirror" magazines could be a good resource of time slots and weekday of what was airing - because their monthly tv-guide like schedule grids looked to be a detailed and accurate resource.. But evidently not so much.. . Radio Mirror monthly issues "Inside Radio" SECTION schedules EST

. As you can see some time/day scheduling doesn't jive very well with what is known, and of particular note; Quiet Please switched to ABC in September 1948 , but Radio Mirror indicates the change in February 1949, also they continued to show it in the schedule for two months after it went off the air. . You can access entire issues of this magazine via the link (which MS provided in a previous post} http://mediahistoryproject.org/collections/ |
