RIP Roger Carroll, who just passed away recently.
Dean Webber also passed away a year earlier 1935-2018
@@TheRenard10They had those dulcimer tones that were good for introducing sign-offs as long as they would have sign-offs.
What an exceptional voice.....Roger, you were a treasure to so many....
The oscillator of the tone heard during the color bars was measured around 400Hz. There were other signoff where they used the same tone during the test pattern we see from 1989 sign off edition that features the black-and-white steering wheel image with the ABC logo in the middle of the screen from the early 80s until 1989 and then went back to it in 1990 before implementing the circle 7 logo in the middle of that pattern in 1991
Thank you for posting this! It brought a tear to my eye. I lived in L.A. and loved this sign off so much, I stayed up late to see it. (It played at 2 a.m.!). I have it recorded it on beta tape, but You Tube is now the place where I can actually see it again thanks to folks like you.
Did the Sign-Off really start at 2:00am?
The color bars with Channel 7 call letters in yellow I so remember that. They actually did the same thing with the other test pattern putting the call letters below the ABC logo in white with the same tone as the one in this video at the end.
@@awsomegenius06Yes, they did sign-off at 2:00 a.m. It would be printed in the newspaper television Guides and the regular TV Guide magazine. They would put sign-off in the listings. By 1988, they had no sign-off news editions that preceded the actual sign-offs, but instead a replay of the 11:00 p.m. news would come before sign-off procedures. In the 1970s through about 1984, there were longer sign-offs at KABC-TV Channel 7. By the early 1990s, they had stopped signing off for the night, but some Los Angeles television stations would sign off at least once a week or more through the early 2000s. The San Diego ABC-TV affiliate, KGTV-TV, had a sign-off silent slide show that went from about 2:00 a.m. through 6:00 a.m. or so, on early Saturday and Sunday mornings through at least 2003.
Speaking of the T-38, which this plane is, I remember seeing an ad in an aircraft sales paper about 20 years ago advertising "The no-frills jet for the businessman who just wants to get there FAST". It was an ex USAF T-38.
Term “the good ole days”
Never ever meant sooooo much!
I do remember the updated version of the Moog SSB when it was on WNYE-TV (channel 25) in NYC where they usually signed off back in the 1990's.

Originally John Glenn did this.
There's one thing he forgot to mention-KABC signed on the air on September 16, 1949 as KECA.
There is a video on somewhere in TH-cam of when the call letters changed to KABC.
@@gidzmobug2323 Where is the video?
@@TheRenard10 I have seen it in TH-cam (both by itself and in a KABC logo collection). If my internet was working better, I could find it on my desktop 🖥️ for you (I am using my phone with limited internet).
@@gidzmobug2323The KECA-TV has an explanation for the call letters. The ECA stood for Earle C. Anthony, a local new car dealership owner who was very wealthy and put many Los Angeles radio and television stations on the air.
@@gidzmobug2323the call sign changed to KABC-TV in 1954. The circle 7 logo began in 1962. That was used on many ABC-TV channel 7s in the United States. The circle 7 logo is still used to this day and the news anchors and reporters still wear a gold circle 7 pin on their torso attire. By 1968, ABC-TV network stations went to full-color broadcasts.
Roger Carroll, you mean as in the Smothers Brothers announcer?
Anyone have the song that plays while the dude is talking at the beginning?
Yes-, that song is called "Forgotten Dreams" and the full version and its history is locatable elsewhere on TH-cam and elsewhere online.
@jasonburger3533 thank you so much 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
@@anonymousrandom1664 You are welcome for that. As far as I know, KABC-TV Channel 7 Los Angeles, used that song, "Forgotten Dreams", at the beginning of their sign-offs from the early 1980s through the last of their sign-offs in 1989 or 1990. Some other television stations across the United States used the same song at the beginning of their sign-offs at the same time period. KABC-TV Channel 7 was the only Los Angeles television station to use that music as part of their sign-offs during the 1980s, although not the only local station to use a rendition of the national anthem, although KABC-TV had been the only television station in Los Angeles to replace their traditional vocalized version of the national anthem with the Moog synthesizer version of the national anthem by the early 1980s and that was entirely instrumental and continued as part of their nightly sign-offs until they stopped signing off nightly after 1989, in about 1990. By the early 1990s, they were a continuously broadcasting television station.
@@anonymousrandom1664Updated information is that KABC-TV Channel 7 Los Angeles used the 1954 rendition of "Forgotten Dreams" at the beginning of the sign-off, as the dude, Dean Webber, did the voice-over. The 1954 rendition of "Forgotten Dreams" that had been used was the Leroy Anderson rendition.
Um, where did the very last part, with the old injured man, came from?

Maybe a VHS recording ended and the input accidentally switched to TV.
I guess they were through with the live announcer at this point.
Yes, the sign-off news had been replaced with replays of the 11:00 p.m. local news. That is why there were no more live announcers. The sign-offs on KABC-TV had ended by the early 1990s.
Great! Brings back memories since I've lived in L.A. my entire life. I remember watching the "High Flight" signoff with the F104. And this National Anthem with B-52s and all those military images!!! Could you imagine a signoff today using John Magee's poem? "Touch the face of God."! Or even playing the Star-Spangled Banner?
4:59 I noticed on a test pattern Parody How a Super Mario Boo would respond to this. The bright colours and the tone sounding like BOOOOOOOOOOOO seems to attract and even excite them like it's not only talking to them in BOO-ISH but its like they expect something as well. Possibly the TV Sign on.
Does David Muir air on here at 6:30?
Yes, David Muir has been the anchor of the ABC World News Tonight, from New York City, for many years and KABC-TV Channel 7 does air that program at that time of the day on weekdays, with a different schedule for weekends as well.
