Flipping Channels on Cablevision at 12:56AM on Jan 10 1987

Starts with the end of a Dobie Gillis episode on CBN and concludes with a partial KTBS sign off.Includes a weather channel local forecast with typical herringbone pattern interference that always accompanied channel 19 on El Dorado Cablevision in the '80s it was due to the local mobile phone tower (before cellular mobile phones operated near 150 MHZ) also includes news promo from KARK and KTVE sports promo and glimpses of many other programs.

"Songbird" would later be a top 10 Billboard hit that Summer.

The unusually unique KATV sign off at the 2:50 mark. It looks like the KATV ABC7 station manager, and he's delivering the sign-off message on camera. Usually a voiceover announcer reads the signoff over station logo and visuals of coverage area.

And then it goes into the Mormon's SSB film...but with one anomaly...the flag in the opening shot is reversed. The stripes usually go from left to right. KATV has them right to left...making me think this was an in-house video for KATV. I think I read somewhere online KATV used the Mormon's SSB film.

When I saw that channel 4 logo I could have sworn it was WBZ in Boston. I didn't know other stations used that logo that weren't Group W.

katv was among the stations that used the mormon ssb film

Wait. That KTBS-TV sign off. Was that the SOGP one still in use at that time?
