Washington - Baltimore Edition

Covers Washington, DC; Baltimore, and Northern VA, most of Maryland & Delaware,  south central PA and the eastern panhandle of WV

Notes:

This edition is actually 2 separate editions -- one for Washington and one for Baltimore; the listings and channels are exactly the same in both editions (unlike other editions, the edition names are not printed on the listing pages). These 2 features distinguish the 2 editions:

1. The edition name is printed over the TVG logo on the cover.

2. These editions have their "channels listed" in a cable conversion chart, which is a card inserted in the middle of each issue (instead of a page or two near the beginning of the listings). Only the Baltimore edition lists all the channels (listed below); the Washington edition only lists channels available on that market's cable systems.
