I did this exact same thing for last Friday's flights (same ones you list) and my flights showed F7 for awhile. Then I cleared 3 days before departure onto the earlier flight. ^
UA may be holding back more inventory ahead of the holiday weekend.
You could also consider getting on the flight you want in NC (if available) for now and staying on the waitlist for NF, although not sure if that changes your position on the waitlist.
Good luck!
