The video commences with the closing moments of Saturday Cinema SE7EN, immediately followed by a WNEV promo for its upcoming Walk For Hunger on Sunday, May 3rd 1988. The sign-off announcement, delivered by Leif Jensen, follows a brief promo for the weekday morning show Today's Business. The station ID graphic has the slogan "Feel Good About That", which was used by WNEV during the mid-1980s. The SSB which follows the sign-off is one produced by the United States Army, featuring the Army Band and scenes of very familiar Washington DC landmarks. The sign-on segment begins with several seconds of a color test pattern with "bleeping" tone, followed by the announcement. The "SE7EN" logo featured in this clip, used since 1982, was replaced later in 1987 with a new one.
Channel 7 in Boston, now known as WHDH, is Boston's second-oldest TV station, behing WBZ-TV Channel 4. Up until 1982 it operated as WNAC-TV and was owned by RKO General. The station's current call, adopted in March 1990, was originally that of Boston's original Channel 5 (1957-1972).
