  1. A commercial break from then WB affiliate WBFX-TV (Now CW affilate WCWG-TV.), in Lexington/Winston-Salem/Greensboro & High Point, NC, from August 10, 2000, just 18 days before they changed their callsign to WTWB-TV. At the time, they were owned by Pappas Telecasting (Now owned by Hearst & a sister station to WXII-TV.) & had cheap, primitive graphics.
  2. Interesting how WKBD kept a couple of signs from their UPN & Fox days.
  3. Here are a couple of clips from WNHT-TV, Ch. 21, Manchester, NH, from January 1989, during their short lived afilliation with CBS & news operation.
  4. An odd 10 second TV station ID from KBSI-TV, Ch. 23 (Fox), Cape Gireadeau, MO, ca. 1990. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rAmXxWFJ5Nk The guy running the channel that the above clip is on (That Random Oshawott) has been uploading a bunch of extremely rare stuff from the Cape Gireadeau, MO\Carbondale, IL\Paducah, KY TV market (WSIL-TV, WPSD-TV, KFVS-TV & KBSI-TV.) from the early-mid 80's-90's & later recently. EDIT: For some reason, I can't get the video to embed.
  5. WDAF moved J! to the 4-5PM hour, back in, I think, September. KSHB last had J! in the 3-4PM hour.
  6. About a week, or more, ago, WDAF-TV in Kansas City, MO swapped the time slots of Jeopardy! & Judge Judy. Jeopardy! now airs back-to-back from 4-5PM & Judge Judy now airs back-to-back from 2-3PM. Judge Judy aired in the 4-5PM timeslot, on WDAF-TV since about 1998 (23 years) Before that, Judge Judy was airing, back-to-back, from 11AM-12PM from 1997-98 & when it premiered in 1996, WDAF-TV aired it in a post 11PM timeslot.
  7. A 1990 news report about the hobby of TV DX'ing from WSMV-TV in Nashville, TN. Featuring a rare mid 1980's ID from KCWS-TV, Ch. 3 in Glenwood Springs, CO.
  8. Here is a little bit of an update, including exactly where exactly where the ATSC 1.0 broadcasts of KMCI & KSMO are moving to, about the launch of ATSC 3.0 in the Kansas City area on August 24, 2021.

  9. KSHB-TV in Kansas City, MO is airing repeats of their 10PM newscast at 12:37AM.
  10. A pre-ABC KSPR-TV, Ch. 33, Springfield, MO, from 1985. They switched from being an independent to ABC the following year & launched a newscast in 1987. Featuring clips from the KSPR-TV produced local kids show "Sammy's Place".
  11. That's too bad. I wonder if that was the channel that also had the stuff from WQEX-TV in Pittsburgh, PA on it, including a recording from their Black & White days, as well as all 3 of the humorous signoffs that they had. Do you remember what the name of the channel was?
  12. I just received the following message from Jay Nix, Director of Engineering at KSHB & KMCI: It looks like almost every full-power TV station in the Kansas City area, except for KTAJ-TV & KPXE-TV, will be participating in ATSC 3.0 starting on August 24, 2021.
  13. A behind-the-scenes look at KYUS-TV, Ch. 3, Miles City, MT, ca. 1979. From an episode of "Real People", featuring the late Fred Willard.
  14. Some rare classic, over-the-air, TV DX & other stuff. From 1966!
  15. Some signoffs from WQEX-TV, ca. 1990's.
  16. When I had uploaded a partial 1993 newscast from KTVO-TV, Ch. 3, Kirksville, MO\Ottumwa, IA to YouTube last year, I was contacted by somebody that now works as a news director there, who was looking for old news clips to compile into a reel & thanked me for uploading what I had of the newscast. They also said that while the TV station does have some of their old newscasts archived on U-Matic & DVC Pro tapes, they no longer have the equipment needed to play them. I was also contacted by another person who, at the time I think, worked as a producer there as well & thanked me for uploading the partial newscast. These people contacted me through the videos comments section.
  17. KMBC-TV, Ch. 9 in Kansas City, MO use to do this as well with both The 10 Commandments & the Sound of Music. They would start the movies at 6PM, instead of 7PM.
  18. KPXE-TV, in Kansas City, MO, has dropped HSN & is now carrying QVC2 on Ch. 50.6.
  19. Has anybody had problems with Vimeo?
  20. Here are some promos & ID's I found on a tape that I have announcing PAX-TV's transition to i - Independent Television, from Summer 2005.
  21. In Kansas City, MO, as a result of the Katz networks starting to move to KPXE-TV. KMCI-TV, Ch. 38.4 has changed from Court TV to HSN (In 16:9 widescreen.) & KSHB-TV has added GetTV to Ch. 41.4. KPXE-TV is still showing HSN on Ch. 50.6 (In 4:3 letterbox.).
  22. A couple of "NewsChannel 4 weather advisories" from WDAF-TV, Ch. 4 in Kansas City, MO, ca. 1996.
  23. KPXE-TV is now showing Court TV on Ch. 50.2, Grit on Ch. 50.3 & Laff on Ch. 50.4. Interestingly, there seems to be a 10 second delay between the Laff feed on Ch. 50.4, compared to Ch. 41.3.
  24. A weather forecast from then NBC affiliate KCBJ-TV (Now ABC affilate KMIZ-TV.), Ch. 17 in Columbia\Jefferson City, MO, featuring the late Greg Crain, ca. November 1984.
