| Sign-off of Philly's current Fox affiliate,
recorded during its final year as an independent (it
would join Fox as one of its charter affiliates later in
1986). The clip commences with the great "Flag
Evolution" SSB film, featuring vintage images of
U.S. History, followed by live video of the Philly
skyline at night with voice-over announcement and ends
with a brief station ID sequence. The "TAF" in
the call sign reflected Channel 29's owner at the time,
Taft Broadcasting (which would sell the station to the
TVX Broadcast Group in February 1987, who changed the
call sign to WTXF). Fox Television Stations is the
current licensee. TV-Signoffs.com gives thanks to TechnerVideo for allowing the embedding of his YouTube clip on this page. |
