Wow! What a way to end the analog broadcast signal of AETN, when the words "Cut 10" is shown on screen, following a PBS Kids promo message and AETN station ID. And then the song "Arkansas (You Run Deep In Me)" written by Wayland D. Holyfield is played at AETN's final analog sign-off time, as the male announcer is heard before and after the song is played, and the Indian-head test pattern is shown prior to shutdown to end 42 years of analog transmission.
This analog shutoff became a tearful event to all, remembering the "odds and evens" of television. From B&W to color, it became a nostalgic story. However, due to the law, all stations had no choice but to made it to sell spectrums for public safety. But, it is not the real end of TV, it still remain. One of the first TV entertainers in Australia said that people is the heart of television, not the technology. And in the US, it is a story. Happy Trails!
Yeah right Julie, and it has been 10 years since analog TV ended its transmission across the United States of America when it went all digital, and I once had a DTV converter box but gave it away. Thanks so much for your good response.
@@erikpridemore3174 For sure, this is quite a great journey! Believe it or not, we had 98 years spending our time in television, but, tracing out 2009, U.S. had 88 years using analog has its own medium. Now, digital 'killed' the analog 'star' and now, almost half of this world is digital ready. Singapore made it since January 2nd and Malaysia at post-March (?) this year, then Indonesia look forward next year, and the Philippines in 2023, left Vietnam as the last Southeast Asian Country to be digital-ready (?). Sadly, other countries, like Vatican City and North Korea, are not digital-ready, as so the Vatican does receive signals all away from the Rome Metro (which RAI is also Vatican's public broadcaster, alongside Vatican TV as local PTV) and North Korea has 3 stations--the major goes to Korea Central Television (public broadcaster focuses of government) and all are in analog PAL (North Korea jams South Korean public broadcasters KBS and EBS which then recognized as a propaganda against the North, but not commercial networks MBC and SBS, which are required to serve the DMZ and the south Pyongyang Metro Suburbs). But, for U.S., U.K., Australia, and others, good job! But in the back of our minds, it is also a sad moment. Analog television started our experience to TV, from the Nipkow Disk to the first movie cams to Baird's experiments until the mechanic TV set was the forerunner. And today, HD came UHD, and came to 4K and 8K by the sake of Japan's NHK which is the only station to start that service, and so as France Televisions for Europe since 2014(?). In the U.S., it's so hi-tech. But finally, in just a pinch of new generation's tech, this TV came more efficient. All of them was made after analog had been died. But, still one message remain, as Australia's Seven Network says before cutting the signal for Sydney: "Thank You... Goodbye..." It is still tearful, let's not forget. Long Live Analog.
@signoff12 Having worked in TV, I believe that "Cut 10" refers to this cut being the tenth video on a tape of DVD compilation of various sign-offs, promos and station ID's. They obviously cut off the analog signal on the first cut (LOL). :)
The north is beautiful with good people. Central can be iffy with Little Rock being a pretty so-so capital. South is a mixed bag as well. It's a quaint little southern state.
I've lived in Arkansas my whole life. And, like the song said, I may wonder, but it's always a part of me. And you're right about the weather. As we say, if you don't like the weather, stick around another day!
@TigerAmongstMen Ah yes, analog euthanasia. But you could actually postulate that the AETN stations actually were reincarnated into new digital bodies, having shed their old analog ones. That is, if you're into that sort of thing (and I'm not). Still a nice sendoff to the analog era, and among the best I've seen on TH-cam along with those for WOWT in Omaha, WLWT in Cincinnati and WSRE in Pensacola
Oddly enough no. (but if there was one it would most likely be a small drive-by town that would already be in ruins by now due to a tornado) But there is a Texarkana (a city in Arkansas that borders with Texas hence the name) There's also an England, Arkansas AND a London, Arkansas which if you think about it is pretty funny considering one city bares the name of a country and the other the name of a city in that country. I know this b/c I'm from Arkansas originally but I live in Oregon now.
Arkansas (You Run Deep In Me), idk who the artist is, but there is a comment showing who wrote it. EDIT: Wayland Holyfield is the man who wrote the song, and it seems that he is also the one that sang it.

Analog TV was then, digital TV is now in the USA.

I thought I'd never hear this wonderful song again. God bless the internet.
I wish this were our state song ...
Peaceful sign-off. Makes me wonder what Arkansas is like, living there...
You will never live anywhere you want to return to more. I have been fighting to back for 20 years. Another 5 and I will have it.
It's alright. Weather sucks though.

I've lived here for most all my life and I can't think of a more peaceful place. I absolutely love it here and I bet you will too
I like the song this is peaceful we need this back
15 Year anniversary today

Idc Mr. Scam Year!
@@alejandroh.resendizone2373 you cared enough to reply
Given that a phone number was on the screen, were they trying to solicit pledges from people about to lose the AETN analog signal?
Yeah, probably.
@signoff12 No, they forget to removed the "CUT 10"
(10 attempts at an analog sign-off!!!
(embarrasing))(my mistake)
just the final part of their DTV transition promo reel. (again, my mistake)
So lovely...

where did that "CUT 10" slate come from?

Christopher Downing Looks like it was a AETN produced analog sign off video or ad to sign off the analog signal.
Years ago
2:18 what character is this?
Nice peaceful analog signoff for the AETN stations with that Arkansas outdoor video. Does the network sign-in or sign-off with this music video?
I’m pretty sure that there are very few stations in the US sign off and on anymore, but I could be highly mistaken.
5:46 bye bye
Arkadelphia? So there must be a Pittskansas?
Sadly not.
rip Jonesboro analog 1938 - 2009.
Thank you for posting this!!!!! Is there any way I could download this video?

CUT 10
2:15 CHOOOOOOOOOOO CHOO
An Ohioan right here but I love this song
Edit: I realized that the lyrics synced to the pictures!!
0:26 cut ten
Please identify the song and artist beginning at 0:46.
Arkansas (You Run Deep In Me), idk who the artist is, but there is a comment showing who wrote it.

What did it say
That girl probably grew up to be an SJW.
While you grew up to whine about things that dont exist.
@@sillygoose635 You were right. I've stopped whining by this point.
@@HarmonicVector Why did it take you so long to respond? lol
