Videos of analog shutdown
If anyone recorded the shutdown, upload the video and let's see it. The only one I recorded was the MPT station (PBS) in Maryland, sorry for the quality but that's the best I can do with my camera...

This is what happened here. Just click on the video titled DTV switch 6/12 9 AM, located on page 3 of the list of videos.

I didn't get to record it this morning, sadly. I wasn't in the best of health at the time with a fever of 101.
![]() I watched the switch over on KAIT8 with two sets. my Sears B&W tube type on the rooftop aerial, and a BPC Sylvania on standard rabbit ears. As they began removing modules from the analog transmitter for use in the new digital transmitter, the signal on the BPC set slowly began degrading with each module removed, where the Sears set didn't skip a beat. At 7AM, both went to static. Ah here we go, found the video link. http://www.kait8.com/Global/story.asp?S=10522089

Local WFAA Ch8 Dallas did a nice little tribute including their old daily sign off they used to run in the '60s and '70s. I remember seeing that in my younger days when I would be up til 1 or 2 am...

any of you dallas/north texas guys remember alex burton, the guy who did a little sign off show in the mid 60s? had the rubber plant on the set with him and he'd read pithy, off the wall stuff right before the national anthem?
