Hi,

I´m looking for a source (maybe the Internet) where I can search in
the OLD german TV Program. Kind of Database, where you can search what
was running at what date. Most interested in the time between 1973 and
1985 PLEASE HELP ME!!

Please have a look at this database for past programs of German TV
broadcasting institutions from 1952 to 1999:
http://www.tvprogramme.de.vu/

Unfortunately, the database is not complete yet. But maybe some
information is already included that is of interest for you.

Is that what you have in mind?

Yes, this is great, but is there a Database that has more data, than
the one you sent?

Unfortunately not. At least none that I know of, and I have
extensively searched for a such database before out of private
interest. I came to the conclusion that, at the moment, no complete
database of historical German TV programs exist.
But maybe you would like to contact the person responsible for that TV
program database, Heiko Thöle? According to the information he
provides, he has lots of data on paper that still needs to be entered
in the database. And he says that he likes to answer individual
questions. So maybe writing him is worth trying if you are looking for
the TV schedules of particular dates:  webmaster@tvprogramme.net

I will do that.

Which channel: ARD, ZDF or one of the regional channels? Or all of them? 
West Germany or East Germany?

Mostly the west german programm (ARD, ZDF und regional WDR)

Newspaper archives with access to scanned editions may be the right
place to search.

Or, of course, you could ask the TV stations. Do you need the address
of their archives?

No thanks, i have the adresses.
