I don't remember Timmy! I do have a book around here somewhere on local kid-show hosts. I'll have to dig it up and see if it mentions him.
Reception of Cheyenne's station was spotty. Once in a while, it came in fairly well. According to my folks, they would've needed to re-aim the aerial (which was inside the attic for some reason), and then the five Denver stations would have been sacrificed. We checked many times, since 5 was right between stations we got, and since they often repeated programs from ABC and CBS at different times, we had reason to wish it would come in.
Part of it may have been the set we were using. I remember, years after that, making fun of their news announcers with my sister. Anchor Gus Gezzie (sp?) sometimes giggled, and there were amusing technical difficulties and slip-ups that a local operation might commit as well.
