office in Arbutus Maryland, we bring you:

TOP 10 THINGS I WOULD LIKE TO SEE in 1993

10.  The return of the Klingon's most fearsome enemy--Tribbles

9.  B'Etor and Lursa set up a brothel on Deep Space 9

8.  Jean-Luc Picard wince every time somone picks up a tricorder or other
    hand-held device

7.  Captain Jellico and Dr Pulaski get assigned to the same ship, or
    even a Trek-style sitcom

6.  The country singer from "The Neutral Zone" come to DS9 to introduce 
    new life, and new civilizations to "Achy-Breaky Heart"

5.  The reutrn of:  Lore, Sela, Ardra, Pakleds, the USS Bozeman, and
    Geordi's beard

I'm wearing an asbestos elf's costume, but I liked that scene (though a very
good friend of mine thinks it was totally out of character for her.  Hi, Chris.
:-)

The show was "The Game", 5th season.  You know the overall really stupid show
where Riker comes back from Rissa (sp?) with a game that everyone on the Big E
becomes addicted to except a visitng Wes and his temp-flame, Robin Loeffler,
who save the day.

Just a quick note about the figures.

Playmates (apparently) did not make Galoob's mistake.  There are ample numbers
of each of the figures out there, so don't pay outrageous prices for a Troi
figure.

Case in point: originally, the Borg figures were thought to be "rarer" then
the other ones.  Places were selling them anywhere from $20.00 to $40.00.
Now, there are plenty of them in the toystores for $5.00 or so.   Think
about it...

When AMT molded the Enterprise-D "in color", they molded it in this awful
pukey duck-eggshell blue.

When I built all three of mine, the base color I used was actually a can of
Krylon gray primer! It's actually a really nice medium gray, and then I 
dry-brushed the whole thing LIGHTLY with silver and black (if you don't know
what dry-brushing is, write me back). 

For the warp nacelles, use Testor's Auto paints: Flat Red and Flat Blue. 
Paint the INSIDE of the clear plastic parts their appropriate colors, and
dry-brush the outside with gold.

The decals will dry up and flake off after a few months. You can prevent
this with a light spray coat of Testors Dullcoat. 

Good luck!

Charge the phaser welder with your phasers, and use the phaser welder to
weld the long bars of metal you found on the ground.  These bits, the
little transporter tool, and wire from the bomb will help fix the
transporter.  Use the charged phaser welder at the bottom of the
forcefield to disable it.  Use the transporter to beam onto the bridge.

Hi,
     ITV in Edmonton is showing Star Trek : Deep Space Nine starting 
January 8, 1993 at 8:00 pm, right after TNG (2 hrs of Star Trek!)
This is in that week's TV Guide.

The 7-10pm window that was previously mentioned was only for ST:TNG on the
Sunday of the uplink weekend.  As far as I know, the rest of the two weeks
for ST:TNG, or one week for ST:DS9, the hours are from 6pm-midnight for the
first run.  Repeats can be later.  Basically, TNG and DS9 are for night-time
airing.

E-mail (which for once didn't bounce), but have had no reply for over

It is?  Please cite the episode references where it was revealed that:

1) The Enterprise was Kirk's first command, and
2) Kirk's Enterprise was the flagship of Starfleet.

Yes, that is Michael Dorn, and the klingon he is playing is Worf's grandfather.

Here's what we have at DS9 Station List Headquarters:


The excerpts from the list as of December 27, 1992 is:

Market		Chan	2hr -Debut	Repeat		Regular
----------	------	-----------	----------	-------
Calgary, AB	2 & 7	Jan 6 @  8:00p
Halifax, NS(16)	MITV	Jan 9 @ 7pm			Sat @  8:00p
Montreal, Can	CFCF-12	Jan 8 @ 9pm	No repeat	Sat @  5:00p
New Bruns,NS(16)MITV	Jan 9 @ 7pm			Sat @  8:00p
Nova Scotia(16)	MITV	Jan 9 @ 7pm			Sat @  8:00p
Ottawa, ONT	CHRO-5	Jan 6 @ 9pm	(24)		Fri @  9:00p

P.E.I., NS(16)	MITV	Jan 9 @ 7pm			Sat @  8:00p
Toronto, Ont.	CITY-57	Jan 5 @ 8pm	None planned	Sat @  6:00p
------------------------------------

Key:
----
Market: Broadcast City
Chan:	Channel with name
Debut:	In 2 Hr. movie form (unless otherwise noted)
Repeat:	Previous weeks episode
Regular:New Episodes
{All times marked should be local to affiliate}

Footnotes:
----------
(16)	Debut is preempting TNG. DS9 may change time slot depending on the
	popularity of the show. This info cross references to Halifax,
	New Brunswick, Prince Edwards Island, and the rest of the N.S.
	provinces. This info has been verified
(24)	This information may change before this air time.


I wish that Alberta was on this list and that my knowledge of Canadian TV
would aid me in reccommending which station might air the program. If
there is no station listed above that you receive my best advice would be:

	1) call a (relatively) close station from the list above and find
		out how they got the program.

	2) call a local station that carries TNG and find out where they
		stand concerning DS9.

	3) check with the station in #1 and find out how to pressure your
		local station in picking up DS9

I wish we could be of more help but if we receive news on Alberta we will
post it immediately. The list will run (at least) until the end of Feb. so
keep checking!!

AS OF 12-30-92	DS9 @ T-5 days and counting!!!!!!
