WXYZ Analog Shutoff 2009 

It was June 12, 2009 and time was 5:59 AM EDT... This was when WXYZ-TV Channel 7 shut off its analog transmitter for the final time, albeit prematurely though as you'll see for yourself... Erik Smith has since retired while Alicia Smith still co-anchors the morning newscasts alongside Malcolm Maddox... From a VCR connected to a DVD recorder... The footage was cleaned up a slight bit using AVS Video Converter... © Disney-ABC Television Group, American Broadcasting Company, Scripps Media and WXYZ-TV
