1979 - KPNX NBC Channel 12 Phoenix, Mesa Arizona - Midnight Broadcast Sign-Off

A midnight sign-off for the Phoenix, Mesa Arizona KPNX NBC Channel 12 TV station. The concept of signing off a television station is not done anymore since broadcastings are now run continuously 24 hours a day.

The proud KPNX 12 banner and iconic NBC peacock style logo. The Arizona mountain formations. The downtown business and government buildings. 316,000 watts of transmission power. The American flag. George Washington. Soldiers at battle. The Sailships. The fruit tree farmers. The colonial buildings. The Statue of Liberty. The Constitution. The United State's mainland outline.

Presented by The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter-Day Saints... The Mormons.

Every single television sign-off is beautiful and this KPNX Channel 12 sign-off is no exception. Freedom of speech, religious freedom, easy access to news and communication. The television broadcasting systems in the United States set the standards high for the entire world. This was true back in 1979 and it still holds true to this very day.

This recording was originally broadcasted on September 02, 1979 in Phoenix Arizona. It was recorded onto a Sanyo V-120 V-CORD2 format video cassette with a 1976 Sanyo model VTC -8200 VCR.
