Jess 1110 Posted May 12, 2017 Author Share Posted May 12, 2017 WHTM in 1993: Just gotta say, I love how it starts out with that 1992-93ish ABC Sports close that I love so dearly. Is that Edd Kalehoff? I'm pretty damned sure it is... I would give a kidney for a clean listen of this, I really would. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Info Junkie 1285 Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 [MEDIA=dailymotion]x5up8t[/MEDIA] A news open from WBAL during their short-lived era of using "Third Coast". This was taken shortly after the switch to NBC. The news graphics are similar to WUAB and WOIO's from the time. Obviously this would all be gone very soon when Hearst rolled out new mandated graphics. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samantha 2873 Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 And KOIN in May 1980 (!) with Part Of Your Life (!!) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnoxvilleTVFan 285 Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 That is some rare KOIN news footage from 1980. The theme they used was "On Top of It All", not "Part of Your Life". I don't know if this has been shared or not, but here is a rare look at KTVT's daily newscast from 1981! They aired this newscast during the midday hours, but these days, KTVT, as a CBS affiliate, airs more local news than what they did back then. That's not all...Mike Seidel of The Weather Channel has uploaded some rare videos of his work on WYFF. I'll post only a couple. First, here is a WYFF weekend weathercast he did on May 18th, 1986. The news anchor is Alta Snell. And next, here is a WYFF Decision '86 election promo featuring Carl Clark (formerly of KHQ-TV Spokane) and Carol (Anderson) Goldsmith. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHJlY4h3D-E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Info Junkie 1285 Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 A WXIA open from 1983 during the "Hello News" days. Very mind-blowing open that was later copied by former sister station KARK in Little Rock. However, sadly, this open would only last a year before Television by Design came calling.

Samantha 2873 Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 That WHTM open is light-years ahead of what they had in 1986. Also, Charlie Van Dyke jumped from WHTM to WGAL really quickly... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samantha 2873 Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Was KXAS the first station to use those graphics? Or WSOC? KXAS had them by April 1987, but by then they were in use elsewhere (WJKS, WHTM). I do not think KXAS debuted them until the new NBC peacock was rolled out. There is a lean toward NBC affiliates in the roster, but not totally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
