KCRA Channel 3 Sacramento sign-off 1986

KCRA was on the air 24 hours a day, with a straight feed of the CNN Headline News channel filling out the later hours, except for Sunday nights when they'd sign off with this at 12:30 AM. By 1987 they finally put in Headline News Sunday nights as well and were full 24-hours.This includes one of two versions I've seen of the "High Flight" poem with Air Force footage, followed by "Bluebird Of Happiness" which might have looked a lot nicer if the film they used wasn't so grainy and dirty.The tape this was recorded on ran out right at the end of the sign-off, so you don't get to see what happened afterwards- most of the time the screen would go white, with the station logo at the bottom and the signal would stay on with silence til sign-on time. Since 2000 KCRA has stuck its logo on the screen during all non-NBC programming, so essentially they are just a big test pattern now ;pThis is recorded from a stereo broadcast; it was common at the time for stations to run all mono material through a fake stereo processor, often with annoying results. Since the sound on YouTube is only in mono though, you will have to search elsewhere to hear this in stereo.

I guess that you were far enough north not to have any signal inference from KEY-T in Santa Barbara. But I think that the Santa Ynez Mountains block KEY-T from even reaching northern Santa Barbara County and San Luis Obispo County, both within KEY-T's "area of dominant influence."

I used to stay up late to watch KCRA sign off just for Highflight and Bluebird of Happiness. But I saw an older version of highflight, which I prefer - not so much background music. Thanks for including Bluebird of Happiness. (We lived on the coast 120 miles south of Sacramento. We had a TV antenna on top of a 40 foot power pole. We would aim the antenna south and catch the signal reflecting off a hill. We got perfect reception from two Sacramento TV stations. The good old days...

Yes, William Conrad sounds like the voice in Buck Rogers intro!

This is just like the one we had on (used to be WDVM) WUSA-9 Washington 9 but they never showed the the sequence before the F-15s split off.

3000 or so more feet and it would be a mile!

Isn't that the same voice that did the buck roger's intro?

41K was in the open blue, and as I watched my altimeter with watchful eyes, I wondered when I would reach out my hand and touch the face of God? Then in a instance it dawned on me, he had been there all along, for I had soloed all alone...

Ah... when KCRA didn't suck. (As a kid visiting a town near Sacramento, I watched Channel 3's news quite often.)
