@Legacy of the Filipino Falangite No, that was KRIV Fox Houston. That was one botched up transition. I'm certain someone in the control room said "NO! Never turn off the fans when you're turning off the transmitter." If you noticed the signal came back, but with no audio. Some intern probably turned the video power back on just to get the fans running.
WLWT 5 in Cincinnati (38:55) handled the transition the best. Previous to the shutdown, WLWT ran a 25-minute video of their history. The announcer for WLWT's signoff came out of retirement to bid everyone good night for the last time on analog. For the night light program, they are the only station I am aware of that did their own version. You can see it at the end of the clip. A couple of days later they started playing the NAB night light program.
Yeah, these are definetly some of the best ones in the US. Elsehwere, I also like the Channel 7 ones in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne, the S4C Wales one (note: the S4C one is not in English) and the BBC One sign off in Wales and the BBC One and BBC Two sign offs in Northern Ireland.
I love when they slowly lower the voltage on the antenna instead of just cutting it off instantly. It's a different type of feeling watching it slowly fade to salt & pepper static.
@@LinkRocks I have an FPV drone (BetaFPV Cetus Pro) which broadcasts analog signal to the goggles. When the voltage gets low, it does the same thing. It's fascinating!
July 24, 2011 was an important day in Japanese television history in that television stations across the country ceased broadcasting on their analog signals. What was unique about this was that every television station had to transmit an information screen between noon and midnight on that day on the analog signal. The transmitters shut off at midnight that day. The switchover in Iwate, Miyagi and Fukushima was delayed because of the three prefectures suffering severe damage in the Tohoku earthquake in March 2011 and digital switchover would take place on March 31, 2012 in these areas.
you know its still possible to make something to broadcast analog tv, i bet if you kept it quite nobody would say anything, however speaking on the world wide point, make sure its not on anything commonly used in that area or nothing good will come of it might take a long time could never happen but if it does it wont be good.
@@QueenDynamoyep. But it only ran for nearly 12 hours. For cable services, analog transmission was ended between 2013 and 2016 depending on the provider. For most providers the information screens were used as well but they were broadcast for 30 days.
Original plans called for analog television signals in Japan to shut off at noon, but there were technical issues that were discovered during a July 2010 test digital switchover in northern Ishikawa prefecture (Noto Peninsula). This is where the information screens came in.
nah WLWT Cincinnati ngl did better. they actually just show some actual information about stuff, and gives lots of history of the channel. And tries to bring back the old tv channel look
There are three types (i think) of analog switchoffs: 1. A heartwarming sign-off before cutting the transmission 2. Some information before the switchoff 3. A hard slap across the face with some tv static
The death of analog was basically the end of a revolutionary era of old technology/the first plants of the industrial revolution and in the end, how fleeting some of even the more historic inventions in general can get (especially if it's from tech). I was born FAR past the golden age of analog (born in 2003 and was in the suburbs at the time but grew up to a more rural neighborhood after the great recession) and don't really remember watching it but seeing how impactful it was for a huge outreach for other cultures to be exposed to a bigger Audience, it's unbelievable how much the TV has gotten even with cable not being as popular as it was even a decade ago. Same thing with radio with how the phone basically killed the popularity of it to a lesser extent even with apps like Radio Garden carrying the legacy of it going to a new generation of people wanting to know how their parents used to watch/hear new material at the time (with it being an aesthetic to some) even with all the hurdles of them.
Feburary 17, 2009... a day i will never forget. it was the date that scared all of my cousins to get Optimum TV (or iO as it was called in 2009). it scared me a lot too since i watched a LOT of TV when i was younger. nowadays, i dont watch tv at all LOL
I remember that day well. The original date for the analog TV shutoff had been set for February - but they changed their minds and changed it to June. I knew that this meant that the transition was going to be right smack into the Sporadic-E season (Sporadic-E is an phenomenon in which VHF radio waves may be reflected back to Earth, about 1000 miles afield). My local station WJBK (Channel 2) was already getting interference from other Channel 2 stations as early as 8:00! I also noted that WRC-TV (Washington) was also being interfered with. BTW: The old blonded-cabinet TV with the WGTE sign-off is mine.
35:35 You’re watching WKYC TV Cleveland. The digital television transition has taken place, and we’ve stopped broadcasting programming on our analog signal. If you’re seeing this message, your television cannot receive a digital television signal. In order to continue watching TV, please listen to the following message and follow the instructions.
In Russia, after shut-off of analog was started a 10 minute video, that described what's happening, what to do, what you should buy, how you need to setup this(even how to set up antenna on roof), what you need to do if you have an old tv, what you should buy if you have a old tv, and even volunteers service that can help with that was started that worked for free
It was doing this due to damage to the transmitter, forcing them to shut it off 10 weeks earlier. KUAS was kept up for the usual time and was transmitting a month after regular programming ended for SAFER
This year in June marks 14 years of the analog signal in the United States being turned off permanently. June 12th was for high power channels. Low power channels had random dates when their analog signals went off the air. If anyone knows exact dates of all the lower power channels, such as FOX 62 in Youngstown, it would be neat to see a full list of them all.
@@Derrick5240July 13th 2021 was the last day of operation for many low power stations, except for those in Alaska, who shut down during January 2022 (exact date I have yet to found).
KLCS' clip looked like it could've inspired the creator of Local 58, with the transition through all the station logos. It had a very analog horror feel to it.

I love the one that played its the end of the world as we know it during their final moments of analog transmission. Something about that clip is very poetic
sad the two stations representing my state here -WHDH and WSBK- didn't do anything special for the occasion, especially the latter given it's mark on tv history as a once national superstation in the analog era
24:00 is probably the best one (WFTV-Orlando). It actually make it feel more special, the whole little tidbit of history lesson they threw in. Then all you see is this little cat onscreen just fade out gradually instead of abruptly cutting off. These Florida folks sure knew how to end an era. Also, the WFAA-TV signoff is pretty unique, and hits close to home because some family lives in that channel's broadcast area.
It’s got everything. A nod to the history and sign on date of the station, giving thanks to the people who started it, the help line number in case viewers need it, then a gentle fade out. Very classy.
Only WTHR 13 and WRTV 6 from Indiana were on here but I knew that WISH TV 8, MyNdy 4 and FOX 59 also had their own special Analog sing-off crawls and countdowns.
I also wonder when the Transmitter and Repeater stations had to go DTV. Repeater and Transmitter stations broadcast on low power and a weaker frequency and take up less broadcasting frequency space. That’s why cellular companies were much less interested in the near future for those less stable UHF bandwidths during the forced mandatory FCC Repack deal that was finalized in the Autumn of 2008 and the subsequent national DTV switchover of early 2009.
the low power tv channels were originally scheduled to sign off in 2015 but were given till June 13th 2021 before they either had to go DTV or shut off
Biggest problem was your indoor antenna, the analog picture at least gave you idea of what direction to point it in, digital is just guesswork, and much more frustrating.
Despues de 71 anos; se acabo todas las transmisiones en television abierta analogica en ee.uu, actualmente trece anos apos, solo esta totalmente en alta definicion en todos los canales americanos.
you could tell some of these programmers just could not wait to hit the button - and some didn't even realize that the shut off would happen so abruptly almost every broadcast of the anchors in the control room got cut too short. a phenomenon that marks the end of an era that I hope never happens again.

I love the one that played its the end of the world as we know it during their final moments of analog transmission. Something about that clip is very poetic
sad the two stations representing my state here -WHDH and WSBK- didn't do anything special for the occasion, especially the latter given it's mark on tv history as a once national superstation in the analog era
24:00 is probably the best one (WFTV-Orlando). It actually make it feel more special, the whole little tidbit of history lesson they threw in. Then all you see is this little cat onscreen just fade out gradually instead of abruptly cutting off.
These Florida folks sure knew how to end an era.
Also, the WFAA-TV signoff is pretty unique, and hits close to home because some family lives in that channel's broadcast area.
It’s got everything. A nod to the history and sign on date of the station, giving thanks to the people who started it, the help line number in case viewers need it, then a gentle fade out. Very classy.
@@NijiMarii definitely a nice change from the abrupt switchoffs and celebratory control room footage.

(I should stop commenting so much on this video)
23:55 now war they couldn't hide the Windows Media Player Hotbar lmao
i love how they didnt broadcast the video but windows media player playing the video
Only WTHR 13 and WRTV 6 from Indiana were on here but I knew that WISH TV 8, MyNdy 4 and FOX 59 also had their own special Analog sing-off crawls and countdowns.
I like how kbtc's was totally unexpected. It just faded in
RADIOSHACK 😭 1:00
51:19 did they tell people about the transmission shortly before that ad?
Plot twist: The news broadcast WAS the digital switchover warning.
No, They Sent Sounds From Another World

I also wonder when the Transmitter and Repeater stations had to go DTV. Repeater and Transmitter stations broadcast on low power and a weaker frequency and take up less broadcasting frequency space. That’s why cellular companies were much less interested in the near future for those less stable UHF bandwidths during the forced mandatory FCC Repack deal that was finalized in the Autumn of 2008 and the subsequent national DTV switchover of early 2009.
the low power tv channels were originally scheduled to sign off in 2015 but were given till June 13th 2021 before they either had to go DTV or shut off
@@maxithefox2389 Correct. All low-power tv stations on analog aka repeater staions had switched off their analog transmitters last July 2021.
@@maxithefox2389In Alaska, the transition was completed in 2022 for low-power stations.
44:36 ima turn off the light.

Biggest problem was your indoor antenna, the analog picture at least gave you idea of what direction to point it in, digital is just guesswork, and much more frustrating.
I love the shut off where it is finders keeper lo- (LOUD STATIC)
Fun fact: If you are listening to this on headphone, you will notice that the audio on KCPQ shutdown only plays on the left and not both.
The fact abc ended there’s with how to get the new box was so respectful and nice😭❤
My analog signals lasted until 2018. My grandpa had analog until then.
Mine lasted til 2009
You might have been watching the remaining low-power analog tv channels in your area. The US ones had to switch off back in July 2021.
@@QueenDynamo Canadian. We still have analog up north.
Mine lasted around 2016-2017
Here in Chile, it would last until 2024.
16:57 that pun was so bad they took it off air

Weirdly, WFAA was my favorite of the video because of how charmingly 1970s it is.
Despues de 71 anos; se acabo todas las transmisiones en television abierta analogica en ee.uu, actualmente trece anos apos, solo esta totalmente en alta definicion en todos los canales americanos.
you could tell some of these programmers just could not wait to hit the button - and some didn't even realize that the shut off would happen so abruptly almost every broadcast of the anchors in the control room got cut too short. a phenomenon that marks the end of an era that I hope never happens again.
