Doctor Who aired in these cities, on these channels:
Madison
WHA
Channel 21 (PBS)
A 26-hour Marathon of ten Jon Pertwee stories, including four "new" ones that had not been previously released for the US market, aired on WHA-TV on 9 and 10 March 1985.
The four "new" stories were: Spearhead from Space, Frontier in Space, Planet of the Daleks, Invasion of the Dinosaurs (in five parts only), which had recently been released by the BBC as part of a complete re-package of all 24 Pertwee adventures.
The Illinois/Wisconsin area TV Guide previewed the Marathon with a half-page 'ad'. This 'ad' was subsequently used in a flyer at TJ's Comics in Chicago urging local fans to contact the programming department at channel 11. (It wasn't until 1986/87 that channel 11 aired these four new stories: WTTW AIRDATES.)
