Report from the This Week in Doctor Who Archive:

Friday 24th July 1998:
WFWA 39 in Fort Wayne, Indiana is airing Doctor Who, but I'd say the show is in trouble. The movie format stories are now airing at Midnight late Saturday. Worse still, they're running The Androids of Tara, a story that aired on the other Indiana station earlier this week in a much better timeslot. This may be the time for a fan campaign to keep the show on that station.
