The open to KHJ-TV's 9 O'Clock News from April 25, 1984:

Is that Charlie Van Dyke? Sounds like him.

 

And you won’t BELIEVE what KTVX was using in the late 1970s-early 1980s (you can see it at 4:01 in the video on this link):

This’ll stump Raymie that’s for sure.

That's two new pieces of music for KTVX. One is Take a Look, and then...there's Bellavia (which is maybe just background music for that promo thingy). If not that, it's the early-mid 70s theme which could very well have been used when the station was still KCPX-TV.

 

EDIT: I think the Take a Look open is from 1980 or earlier. KTVX did not have a 6:00 show in 1981.
