WRGB-TV Sign-On 

The footage in the sign-on seems to date back to 1978, because I saw the footage in a promo reel from that same year

This SSB piece was seen here in this vid by KDLH-TV (Channel 3) and KBJR-TV (Channel 6) in Duluth, Minnesota during the 1980's. I remember seeing it in 1983 and 1984.

I'm pretty sure that they got the national anthem video from the US Air Force, probably in the mid 80's. A station that I used to work for used "America the Beautiful" with nice pictures from landmarks around the country ... certainly a more 'peaceful' feeling.

This was probably late 1970's/early '80's, given that WXYZ was using it in 1980.

Another one from Schenectady, NY ... the hometown of Henry James' Daisy Miller.

All Channel 6 stations broadcast at 87.75 FM.

87.7 on FM? Good to know.

Well that applies to any NTSC-M based station which all US stations use NTSC-M.

Actually, Mike H., Channel 6's assigned frequency is 82-88 megahertz (MHz).

why are they showing the jet fighters and not people sharin peace as in the sign off from the Canadian CBC
