- Following a couple of ads for U.S. Auto Schools, Inc. and Job Corps, here's an overnight broadcast of WNEW's News Headlines report with Chuck Caron. Afterwards, an inspirational Call to Prayer reading with Rev. Constantine Xanthakis follows prior to the Star-Spangled Banner giving a final salute to this broadcast day for Channel 5 in New York City.
Some of the images at the top of the montage, starting at 13:51:
-the seal of the state of New York;
-the seal of the state of New Jersey;
-the seal of the state of Connecticut;
-the American maple, state tree of New York;
-American goldfinch, the state bird of New Jersey;
-American robin, the state bird of Connecticut;
-the New York state flag;
-Connecticut State Capitol building in Hartford;
-New Jersey State House in Trenton;
-New York State Capitol building in Albany
When Channel 5 became a Fox affiliate in 1987,it wasn't the same.
I believe Chuck Caron became the main voice of what had become Fox 5 in the late 80s, remaining in that role until 1991.
He'd been doing announcing work for the station since at least the mid-1960's.
Had Tom Gregory handled the sign off at this juncture, the closing sentence would have been, "This is Tom Gregory, speaking on behalf of *Met*-romedia Television, Division of *Met*-romedia, *In*-corporated, wishing you a very pleasant good night from Channel 5."
As on:

This is television station WNYW TV Channel 5 New York owned and operated by Fox Television transmitting from the Freedom Tower. Executive offices and studios located at 205 East 67th Street in Manhattan. WNYW TV operates on an assigned frequency of 76 to 82 megahertz by the Federal Communications Commission authorized. Programs cannot rebroadcast or copied without Fox Television's written permission. Programs and other program portions pre-recorded already. Now speaking on behalf for Fox Television wishing you a pleasant good night and good morning.
Except by the time 1WTC was finished, TV stations rarely signed off. However, some of the 24-hour stations would still state technical info and do the SSB.
@@TimBoyd2012 I did this as my example if this happened in the present year.
Ed Ladd with the sign off! Not many of those on here. Good night... and good morning!
And on here . . .

. . . Tom Gregory with the sign-off!
"Good night, from Channel 5."
Seems the only sign-off newscast reader not represented as yet is Peter Lucas. Two of Chuck Caron's (including here), plus a few by Tom Gregory, one by Lou Steele and one or two by Ed Ladd are now here.
As for "Call to Prayer," that title dated back to DuMont / WABD days in the 1950's. I have a 1958 New York-Metropolitan TV Guide which mentioned it in the listings. It was prior to Channel 5's owner changing its name to Metropolitan Broadcasting which, in turn, preceded by a matter of months its change in calls to WNEW-TV. ("Call to Prayer" would give way to "Sermonette," title wise, a year from this.)
Reverend Xanthakis is still around. He now lives in Fort Pierce, FL. Sadly, his wife passed away last year.
I was just in Fort Pierce a little over a week ago BTW; with a nice seafood restaurant just east of the causeway heading towards the oceanfront area. Perhaps that memorial walk leading to the beach could be a good place for her.
Ed Ladd WNEW '80s sign-off? Why did I just discover this???
I don't think they ever cross-promoted WNEW-FM at sign-off time. A bit odd, but this is a unique sign-off overall, with an almost barebones script at the top containing no mention at all of "channel 5".
Ed Ladd on the sign-off announcement.
The original version of the montage that replaced the Flag Evolution film is seen here. They later switched to a videotaped production in 1983, and continued to use it until FOX began.
And I think that montage, which I have NEVER SEEN AT ALL, must date back to the late 1970's
@@NEPatriot - 1978-79, particularly.
@@wmbrown6 Prior to that i believe they used the evolution film as the ssb sign off
@@vln2012 - Oh, they did. Up to about 1978.
Was that the Wing and a Prayer Fife and Drum Corps doing "The Caissons Go Rolling Along?" It sure sounded like them.
Watergate post era
