Then, following the Morning Message from the Rev. Msgr. James W. Asip of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Brooklyn, WABC signs off for the night.

I do remember the earliest date I seen WABC TV use the US Marine Corps film for the SSB was when Ch 7 signed off the air early Saturday morning July 23rd, 1983!

The first time I remember WABC TV Ch 7 using the US Marine Corps SSB film was after the same late Friday/early Saturday July 23rd, 1983 when "New York Hot Tracks" first premiered!

15:39 - Card Sharks at 10:30? Must have been syndicated second-run.

What a rare thing this is to see! I don't think I ever saw a news-sign off anywhere on here from WABC yet (plenty of examples from the other NY stations especially WNEW) as well as the Moog SSB!

@wmbrown6 11 месяцев назад

There's a sign-off newscast from this station from 1982 (read by Tedd Lawrence).

@AndyUpdale 11 месяцев назад

There's also a sign off newscast on WNBC TV Ch 4 from March 1980 voiced by Don Pardo!

Bob Lloyd was the announcer on duty at the time the station signed off on this, the anniversary of Bastille Day. Too bad the volume is so low. But it is a treasure, for sure. At what point would WABC have ceased to use this Moog SSB, perchance? And wouldn't this have been one of their last-ever sign-off newscasts?

@AndyUpdale 11 месяцев назад

I believe that WABC TV stopped using the MOOG SSB around July 22nd or 23rd, 1983.

For a while there was it true that WOR TV Ch 9 started using the MOOG SSB in late 1974?

@wmbrown6 11 месяцев назад

@@AndyUpdale - 1974-75. Someone put up a sign-on dated 1975 where Art Helmer was the announcer.

The music in the Family Service commercial was also used by WFLD in Chicago for their sermonettes in the late 80s.

I only wish that someone can locate a video air check of WABC TV signing on or off the air from the early 1970's with the "Morning Prayer" sermon!

@wmbrown6 10 месяцев назад

@@AndyUpdale- There's one from 1982 with "Father" Tedd Lawrence, off-screen, doing the sermon. From about the early 1960's to 1983, staff announcers handled sermonettes "in cooperation with" such entities as the Communications Office of the Archdiocese of New York, the New York Board of Rabbis, and the Council of Churches of the City of New York, apparently initially as an economy measure (they did have "people of the cloth," on-camera, handling such sermonettes before sign-off or during sign-on, in the late 1950's).

Bob Lloyd's easy going voice for sure

@mikesmemoriesfromthepast89 11 месяцев назад

Different announcer of WABC. That was Bob Lloyd.

@wmbrown6 11 месяцев назад

He was among the rotational core of ABC announcers who handled the evening to sign-off shift at WABC-TV; a group that included Tedd Lawrence, Wally Parker, Ed Williams, and Allan Jefferys. (Until the late 1970's, so did Ed Jordan.) Mr. Lloyd had been with ABC since at least the mid-1960's; he handled announcing duties for "Dark Shadows" in its early years, as well as for "One Life to Live." Mr. Jefferys' voice sounded a bit similar to Mr. Lloyd's, only a bit more nasal.

@@AndyUpdale - A former WABC Musicradio 77 DJ, Frank Kingston Smith, called Mr. Lloyd "The Sleepwalker" because, in the former's estimation, the latter always sounded tired when doing the :55 and :25 news updates during Smith's shift.
