| The final few moments of northern Indiana's long-time NBC affiliate. The clip starts out with station staffers throwing a giant light-switch signifying the end of its analog transmission and the beginning of digital (aired in black-and-white, interestingly). From there its an "old-school" sign-off announcement with a static station ID graphic and voice-over. The Star Spangled Banner follows, a computer-generated animation of the U.S. flag. After a final station ID ("This WAS WNDU-TV, Channel 16, Souh Bend"), we're treated to 30 seconds of a video blizzard. From its inception in 1955 to 2006 WNDU was owned by Notre Dame University (hence the call letters) and operated on Channel 46 its first two years of business. |
