What happened to the early morning schedule
HSV dumped the Today show (although I think it possibly continued in Sydney?)
With kids shows in the morning already on the other three channels I guess Seven felt it was futile to enter that crowded market so just moved its sign-on time to 11.00

Today continued in Sydney until 6 September 1974, when it was cancelled. On 9 September, ATN7 moved its sign-on time to 10am.

Ten News at Noon… that didn’t last long from memory. It soon reverted back to 11.30am pretty quickly.
