What US airline hubs for one airline do not receive any mainline service from another airline (edit: just to clarify, I am only talking about the six legacy carriers):
For example:
MEM, a NW hub, gets no mainline from UA
CVG, a DL hub, gets no mainline from AA
SLC, a DL hub, gets no service at all from US, if I recall correctly
Any others?

Oh... I figured you were looking for no mainline from ANY other airline. These rules are a little easier.

CVG is down to one or two daily UA 735s and NW DC9s, everything else are regional affiliates. AF opperates a daily A332 but that really doesn't count as it's a direct codeshare with DL.

I would assume Cleveland must have limited mainline service as well. It's major airline there (Continental) has limited mainline service when compared to it's Express service.

This is cheap but WN at DAL has not much mainline competition becuase of DFW.

although Midway isn't a legacy carrier hub, it has no UA service at all (mainline or otherwise). Even AA (as far as i know) has mainline flights in and out of MDW. Well just thought that was worth mentioning.

JFK is a DL/AA int'l hub and a B6 hub. No US, no CO.----I won't even acknowledge that one flight a day to IAH as mainline service!

MEM is lucky that they have a hub at all and are thus in this thread. SLC-CLT seems a bit farfetched to me. Neither city has great O&D traffic and US is not especially interested in the Western United States.

Regarding CLE: We receive mainline service from all six "legacy" carriers.
American Airlines: mainline to ORD and MIA; Eagle CR7 to DFW, Eagle to LGA and supplemental to ORD
Delta Air Lines: mainline to both CVG and ATL; Connection supplemental to CVG and ATL
Northwest Airlines: mainline to both DTW and MSP; Airlink to MEM and supplemental to DTW and MSP
United Airlines: mainline to ORD and DEN; Express to IAD and supplemental to ORD.
USAirways: mainline to CLT; Express to PIT and PHL
We also receive mainline on America West Airlines from PHX and LAS.
We also receive feeder service for Midwest Airlines (Skyway.)
We do NOT have scheduled service on Alaska Airlines or ATA or their respective feeders.

Delta seems to be heading that way at DTW.
Of course DTW is a Northwest fortress.
Delta who just a couple years ago was still flying 767s to ATL is down to MD-80s. from CVG, Delta used to fly a/c as big as 767s to DTW, now everything is CRJ.
USAirways is almost all but gone as mainline at DTW with just a couple 737s to CLT, everything else is CRJ or ERJ.
I think the only mainline Continental at DTW is just to IAH, at one time all three Continental hubs flew mainline to DTW.
United and AA are still pretty healthy at DTW, although both of them have shrunk their plane sizes too.
